About this banknote
The "Banque de l'Algérie" issued the 1000 franc banknote for Tunisia in 1892. This series was introduced as part of efforts to centralize and standardize currency in the region, following the establishment of the bank in 1851, to facilitate trade and economic stability in French North Africa.
The front side of the banknote features ornate allegorical figures seated beside intricate architectural designs, with the denomination prominently displayed as "MILLE FRANCS." The back side illustrates classical figures, with the center characterized by a personification of abundance. With Pick number 31, this note is distinguished by its blue and brown coloring.
