Dutch play money produced in imitation of the genuine 100 Gulden note. Items like this occupy an awkward legal grey zone in the Netherlands — the Bankwet and associated counterfeiting statutes have historically required that imitation notes differ sufficiently in size, color, or marked wording to avoid prosecution, which is why most legitimate speelgeld carries an "IMITATIE" or similar overprint and is produced at a noticeably reduced scale.
At 170 × 96 mm, this example is close enough to the genuine article to raise questions about compliance with those regulations.
