| Comments |
Thomas De La Rue produced this note during a relatively stable stretch for the Dominican peso, before the economic turbulence of the early 1980s eroded parity with the US dollar — a parity the Dominican government had maintained, with considerable effort, since the peso's formalization in 1947. At the time of issue, one peso nominally equaled one dollar, a rate that made these notes feel weightier in everyday commerce than they would within a decade.
Pick 110 is a short-dated issue, spanning only the 1975–1976 print run before the series was superseded.
