| Opmerkingen |
Suriname's colonial treasury notes of this period were issued directly by the Schatkist — the colonial treasury — rather than through any chartered bank, a consequence of the colony's persistent difficulty in sustaining a formal banking institution through the first half of the nineteenth century. The Surinaamsche Bank had collapsed in the 1820s, and no replacement had yet taken hold by 1847, leaving the treasury to fill the void with its own paper.
Enschedé's involvement is notable — the Haarlem firm had been supplying printed work to Dutch colonial administrations for generations, and their security printing infrastructure was among the most sophisticated available to the Netherlands at mid-century. A 100 Gulden denomination would have represented a very substantial sum in 1847 Suriname, suggesting these circulated primarily in merchant and government transactions rather than everyday trade.
