| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed entirely in olive-green tones and consists of an elaborate geometric guilloche pattern filling the central field, with the large bold numeral 500.000 set within a decorative cartouche at center. The words ΤΡΑΠΕΖΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ are repeated in a continuous legend along all four outer border bands, interspersed with rosette ornaments at the corners, giving the reverse a purely typographic and lathe-work design with no pictorial vignette. |

| Opmerkingen |
Greece's wartime occupation authorities — the Axis-installed puppet government — financed the Wehrmacht's local supply needs in part by forcing the Bank of Greece to print at extraordinary volumes. By 1942, inflation was accelerating toward the hyperinflationary collapse that would peak in late 1944, when the drachma effectively ceased to function as a currency. This bond-format denomination, technically classed as an agricultural treasury instrument, reflects the administrative fiction of treating emergency inflationary paper as structured debt rather than outright money creation.
The "Agricultural" designation linked these issues nominally to rural credit programs, but in practice the distinction between bond and banknote had collapsed entirely by this stage of the occupation.
