The Régie des Chemins de Fer des Territoires Occupés was a French military railway administration that managed the German rail network in the Rhineland following the Armistice — an occupation that dragged on through the 1920s, requiring its own parallel monetary apparatus to pay local workers and suppliers without relying on either French francs or the collapsing German mark. These scrip notes filled that gap.
Vergnot's design was engraved by de Ruaz, both working within the Imprimerie Paul Dupont's established intaglio tradition. The P#R6 series is genuinely uncommon in circulated grades — most survivors show little wear, which likely reflects the narrow and controlled environment in which these notes actually changed hands.
