The riel was reintroduced on20March1980 after abolition. This fixes the restoration milestone; continuity of old balances and uninterrupted use remain unproved.

Qualified C1175
The riel was reintroduced 20 March 1980 after its 1975 abolition, including use for civil-servant salaries. This is a restoration of the named account-unit tradition, not established redemption of old balances or uninterrupted monetary use. The restoration is retained as an optional relationship.
Corrected interpretation: Revision 27 supplies a new evidence basis for R-V23-015. Account-unit source adjudication. Replacement evidence: C1614.
