About this banknote
In 1914, France was on the brink of World War I, a time of significant change and uncertainty. The country was using the franc as its main currency, which had been in circulation since the 14th century. This period marked the end of the Third Republic, which influenced economic conditions and currency stability.
The 100 franc banknote issued in this year reflects the early national currency system that had evolved since France's independence. It was part of a broader context where the franc underwent various changes in design and value due to the challenges of the time, including wartime needs and inflation.
