| Opmerkingen |
The Banque de l'Indo-Chine was established by French decree in 1875, granted the monopoly of note issue across French Indochina and later extended into French India and the Pacific settlements. This early Haïphong-payable dollar note belongs to a period when the bank maintained regionally designated issues — each major commercial port, Haïphong, Saigon, Hanoi — had its own place of payment printed on the face, reflecting the colony's fragmented financial infrastructure rather than any difference in the underlying instrument.
Dupuis was among the most respected medallists of the Paris Mint in the late nineteenth century; his involvement signals that this issue was treated with the same seriousness as metropolitan currency. Léveillé's engraving work for the Banque de France gives the plates a pedigree unusual for a colonial note of this denomination.
