French army occupation issues for Austria and Germany with "Trésor Français" legend at left. Description: Blue and multicolored design. Front: Mercury at left center, value top left and right, reverse blue and multicolored, maiden at center. Watermark with helmeted head profile. This is the only French Treasury note with the red stamp found more particularly on Suez notes. I bought this banknote at Numiscollection in May 2016, but the note was lost during mailing! Anyone with information about this is asked to contact me. Size: 116x75mm. FBOW Collection.
