Haiti's Trésor Public — the state treasury acting directly as issuer rather than a central bank — produced this series during one of the country's more unstable political stretches, a period that saw four different heads of state between 1859 and 1867. Waterlow & Sons handled the London printing, as they did for numerous Caribbean and Latin American governments that lacked domestic printing infrastructure.
The series ran across nearly a decade without consistent reissue dates, which makes precise attribution within the range difficult. Surviving examples are scarce; Haiti's tropical climate is notoriously destructive to paper, and low-denomination notes rarely survived in circulation regardless of region.
