This note belongs to the immediate postwar reissue of the wartime 5000 Drachmai series, printed as Greece attempted to restore monetary order following the catastrophic Axis occupation inflation — a period during which the drachma had effectively ceased to function as a store of value. The "large type" designation distinguishes this from the visually similar P#172, the difference being a typographic modification to the denomination text rather than any change in the underlying plate design.
The broader 1944–1946 stabilization effort ultimately failed. A new currency reform in November 1944 had already replaced these notes at a rate of 50 billion old drachmai to one new drachma, making surviving examples of this series more a record of hyperinflationary collapse than functional tender.
