The Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre Mer (Central Bank of Overseas France) used the same basic designs for many French colonies. Notes for French Equatorial Africa have no overprints, but the same note is overprinted on front and back for French Antilles, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Reunion and Saint Pierre et Miquelon (Saint Pierre and Miquelon).

This is why a barren rocky territory in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Newfoundland in Canada has a banknote with a tropical landscape with palm trees on the back.

UNC uncirculated condition.

During the printing process on many modern notes, a dimple is created where the security thread is on the edge of the note (sometimes called a counting tick), when the notes are run through high speed counters. This does not disqualify the note as UNC.

You are purchasing one note only. Images show the front, back, or detail of the same single note only.

Unless stated otherwise, the images are representative scans. You may receive a different serial number and in some cases a different prefix.

All notes are 100% authentic and currently or formerly legal tender, unless otherwise stated (such as proofs or specimens).

Offered for collectible, numismatic value only; not for foreign exchange.
