An exceptional example, this strike and preservation are hard to find. The allegorical woman is Belgium kneeling with sword and shield, washing her leg and there's a caduceus medical symbol on the back. It's supposed to represent Belgium, wounded but recovering from the ravages of World War One. These were issued in 3 denominations [50 c, 1 & 2 Franks] and two language versions, this one is French [BELQIQUE], the other is Dutch/Flemish. BON POUR means Good For in French. Design by Bonnitain.
