The overprint program of 1960 was a direct consequence of the CFA franc reform — rather than printing entirely new stock, the Caisse Centrale applied "50 Nouveaux Francs" overprints to existing 5000-franc notes to align the overseas territories with metropolitan France's own new franc conversion at the 100:1 rate introduced by de Gaulle's government in January 1960.
Overprinted issues like this one were transitional instruments with short working lives, and attrition rates were high. The underlying 5000-franc note was itself a high-denomination piece with limited everyday circulation, which means surviving examples of the overprint tend to come from cashier holdings rather than street use.
