| Opmerkingen |
Haiti's Trésorerie Générale issued this note just two decades after independence, during a period of chronic fiscal instability compounded by the enormous indemnity payments France had imposed on Haiti in 1825 — the notorious "debt of independence" that drained the republic's treasury for well over a century. Paper money circulated uneasily in a population that had little reason to trust state institutions, and early Haitian notes of this series rarely survived in any condition worth cataloging.
P#2 is among the earliest documented paper currency issues of the Western Hemisphere's first Black republic. Survivors are genuinely rare; most known examples come from archival rather than commercial sources.
