The Chambre de Commerce de Granville was one of dozens of French regional chambers granted emergency note-issuing authority after the outbreak of war in 1914 caused an immediate hoarding crisis that stripped small-denomination coinage from circulation almost overnight. These chamber notes filled the void that the Banque de France, focused on larger denominations, had no interest in addressing. Granville's issues were purely local instruments, accepted within a tight commercial radius on the Normandy coast.
The Charles Valin press in Caen handled several Norman chamber issues during this period. The watermark security was modest but adequate for the low-denomination, short-circulation purpose these notes were designed for.
