Opmerkingen

Sonora was one of the few Mexican states that managed to issue genuinely stable emergency currency during the Revolution. While Carrancista and Villista paper collapsed repeatedly, Sonora's notes — backed by the state government and its customs revenues — held enough confidence to circulate at or near face value through much of 1915. The American Bank Note Company's involvement was not incidental: the state deliberately sought a foreign, credible printer to signal fiscal seriousness at a moment when most Mexican paper was being refused outright.

The S1073 belongs to a well-documented ABNC series for Sonora, and surviving examples in sound condition are less scarce than the improvised rubber-stamped issues from other Revolutionary factions — but the 10 Peso denomination sees considerably more demand than the smaller values in this run.
