About this banknote:
The Banque de France issued this 1000 francs banknote in 1949. This series was introduced shortly after World War II as part of France's efforts to stabilize and modernize its currency system in the post-war economy. The note reflects typical French banknotes of the period, characterized by detailed artistry and complex designs.
The front side of this note depicts an illustration of two allegorical figures surrounded by motifs of fruits, flowers, and leaves, reflecting a luxuriant and vibrant design. The back features a serene image of a woman in a veil, framed by intricate decorative elements. This banknote, identified as Pick 130b, measures 160 x 90 mm and was signed by J. Belin, P. Rousseau, and P. Gargam. A limited production run of 200 notes enhances its numismatic interest.
