W 1954 r. grecka drachma została przeszacowana w stosunku 1000:1 w celu powstrzymania inflacji. W związku z tym banknot ten ma bardzo podobny wygląd do starego banknotu o nominale 50 000 drachm z 1950 r., a jego wartość nominalna została zmieniona na 50 nowych drachm.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

In 1954, the Greek drachma was revalued at a rate of 1000:1 in an effort to stop inflation. As such, this note bears a very similar design to the old 50 000-drachma note from 1950, with its face value changed to 50 new drachmai.
