Haiti's early independent republic faced a chronic shortage of specie, and the gourde notes of the 1820s were issued partly to address the demands of a crippling indemnity payment imposed by France in 1825 — 150 million francs in exchange for diplomatic recognition, a debt that strangled Haitian public finances for generations. Paper currency in this period was deeply mistrusted by the population, and circulation of these notes was limited and contested.
Pick 6 is among the earliest surviving Haitian paper issues. Genuine examples are extremely rare; the series suffered both from limited original production and from deliberate destruction during subsequent monetary reorganizations under Boyer's administration.
