The Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre-Mer was established in 1944 to handle monetary affairs across France's overseas territories in the immediate postwar reorganization — a deliberate separation from the Banque de France proper, which had been compromised by its role during the Occupation. This 500 Francs note circulated across multiple distinct territories under the same issuing authority, which is why P#46 turns up in collections associated with everything from French Guiana to Réunion.
Clément Serveau was a prolific designer for French colonial currency; Beltrand's engraving work on the obverse is characteristically fine-line and restrained. Hourriez handled the reverse. The Banque de France printed the series despite the CCFOM's institutional independence from it.
