| Anmerkungen |
Haiti's 1875 note issue came during the presidency of Michel Domingue, a period of acute fiscal instability marked by foreign debt obligations and internal political maneuvering. The Banque Nationale d'Haiti itself had a complicated existence — its concessions were contested, and the institution was effectively controlled by foreign financial interests for much of its early history.
ABNC produced the intaglio work from their Manhattan plant, where Haitian commissions were a recurring but relatively minor part of the order book through the 1870s. The P#72 designation places this among the earlier surviving Haitian paper issues, and genuine circulation examples are seldom encountered — the 19th-century Caribbean monetary environment was brutal on paper.
