The 1932 issue came at a brutal moment for Greek public finance. Greece had suspended the gold standard in April of that year, and the drachma was in freefall — a 500-drachmai note represented serious purchasing power against a backdrop of rapid depreciation and public anxiety about the banking system. Tsouderos, who signed this note as Governor, would later serve as Prime Minister of the Greek government-in-exile during the Axis occupation.
