Haiti's 1827 paper currency was issued under President Jean-Pierre Boyer, whose government unified Hispaniola under Haitian control from 1822 to 1844 — a period during which Boyer was simultaneously managing the ruinous indemnity payments to France that had been formalized in 1825. The French demand for 150 million francs in compensation to former colonists placed extraordinary pressure on Haitian public finances, and domestic paper issues of this period were deeply distrusted by a population that had witnessed the inflationary collapse of earlier revolutionary-era notes.
Survivors from this issue are genuinely rare. The 1827 series had limited print runs and circulated in an economy where metallic coin was strongly preferred.
