Opmerkingen

Philippeville — now Skikda, Algeria — was an Algerian port city under French administration when this note was produced. The Chambre de Commerce issues of 1914 were emergency small-change substitutes, filling a gap created by the hoarding and disappearance of coin at the outbreak of war. Moullot fils aîné was a well-established Marseille commercial printer, not a specialist security printer, which shows in these notes — they were functional documents, not hardened against forgery.

The absence of Arabic text distinguishes this from related issues in the same series that carried bilingual text as a concession to the local population. That omission was a deliberate editorial choice, not an oversight.
