Metz was under German administration from 1871 until the Armistice, annexed following France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian War. This note was issued in 1918 — the year the city reverted to France — which places it precisely at the seam between two sovereignties. Municipal emergency notes of this type proliferated across northeastern France during the war years to compensate for the near-total disappearance of small coinage from circulation.
Berger-Levrault, the Nancy-based printer responsible for this issue, was one of the most technically capable regional printing houses in France, with a long record of government and military contract work. The watermarked paper distinguishes it from the more rudimentary cardboard substitutes common to smaller communes.
