About this banknote
The Bank of Greece issued this 100 drachmai banknote in 1953. This series was introduced as part of monetary reforms to stabilize the Greek economy and combat post-war inflation. The reforms were essential in transitioning the currency from the old drachma to the more stable post-war drachma.
The front side of the banknote features the portrait of Emperor Constantine I. The back side illustrates a depiction of a Byzantine-style church, accompanied by ornate decorative patterns. This note is identified as Pick number 324, characterized by its blue color on an orange underprint.
