The denomination 50 CENTIMES appears in bold white letters on a dark central panel, with the municipal arms of Granville (anchor) at left and Cherbourg (three stars) at right, above the exchangeability clause and two manuscript presidential signatures. |

During and after World War One, the French central banking system was so severely strained that hundreds of local chambers of commerce were authorized to issue their own small-denomination emergency notes — a practice that continued well into the early 1920s as coin shortages persisted. The joint issue by the chambers of Granville and Cherbourg reflects a regional cooperation unusual even within that decentralized framework; most chambers issued independently.
Yves Caraës was a local Granville printer, not a specialist security firm, which accounts for the relatively modest production quality. The watermark is the primary — and essentially only — anti-counterfeiting measure employed.
