Greece met this shortage by reissuing old banknotes which had been cancelled and were awaiting destruction. These notes all have six cancellation holes (although there were apparently some variations) and are normally stamped AKYRON (CANCELLED). In many cases they also bear a stamp denoting the town in which they were cancelled. Notes without such a stamp are thought to have been cancelled in Athens. These notes are normally in poor condition, which is the reason they had been cancelled.
This particular note is a reissue of P105
