| Opmerkingen |
This note was produced clandestinely by the Polish Home Army's financial apparatus in the final weeks of the Warsaw Uprising, intended to function as emergency currency within liberated zones that never fully materialized. Bór-Komorowski — General Tadeusz Komorowski, commanding officer of the Armia Krajowa — signed the authorization, lending the note its popular name among collectors, though his actual signature does not appear on surviving examples.
The Solidarity attribution in modern catalogs reflects the note's later appropriation as a symbol by the underground opposition movement, which reproduced or circulated surviving specimens during the 1980s as acts of political defiance against the communist-era NBP.
