| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central field displays the Haitian coat of arms: a royal palm tree surmounted by a Liberty cap on a pole, flanked by trophy arrangements of cannons, cannonballs, anchors, and military flags. Superimposed over the arms are the large monogram letters B.P.1G./G.L.H., referring to the Banque de la République d'Haïti denomination designation. A scroll in the lower field bears the national motto L'UNION FAIT LA FORCE. The peripheral legend REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI is inscribed along the upper rim, while LIBERTE . EGALITE runs along the lower rim, separated by small floral ornaments at each side. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Haiti's 1889 gourde issue appeared during a period of acute political instability — the country cycled through multiple heads of state across the 1880s, and monetary policy reflected that disorder. Bronze at this denomination was a concession to fiscal reality; silver issues had become increasingly difficult to sustain as government revenues eroded under debt obligations still trailing back to the indemnity extracted by France in 1825.
KM#51 is seldom encountered with original surfaces intact, consistent with heavy use in a cash-dependent rural economy where small transactions left little room for coin preservation.
