New Caledonia emergency postage currency
- Reason
- High quality, high EV (presented as a pair). New Caledonian emergency stamp money was issued (1914–23) in lower denominations (e.g., 25 and 50 Centimes, 1 and 2 Francs) indicating a need for non-metallic change (see Fractional currency) and likely reflecting a war-time specie shortage.
