Opmerkingen

Haiti's Trésor Public notes of the 1820s were issued during an extraordinarily turbulent fiscal stretch. The 1825 indemnity agreement with France — under which Haiti committed to paying 150 million francs to compensate former colonists for lost property, including enslaved people — immediately destabilized state finances. Domestic paper issues from this period were attempts to manage a treasury that was, in practice, already pledged to Paris.

P#36 is among the rarest of Haitian nineteenth-century issues. Surviving examples are known in single digits globally, and the question of whether any circulated meaningfully or were simply issued and recalled is unresolved in the literature.
