| Anmerkungen |
The Banque Nationale de la République d'Haïti had a complicated institutional history by the time this series was issued — the bank had been under direct American financial supervision from 1915 until 1947, with the Haitian government only regaining full control of its central bank in the years immediately surrounding this note's print run. The timing is not incidental.
ABNC printed Haitian currency for decades, and their relationship with Port-au-Prince long outlasted the occupation itself. The P#170 gourde belongs to a transitional series issued across a four-year window — individual dates within the 1946–1950 range affect collector interest considerably, with earlier dates commanding more attention.
