A central diamond-shaped frame encloses the denomination $100 and a serial number, above which the Haitian national coat of arms appears as a small vignette flanked by the mottoes Liberté and Egalité. The lower portion of the note carries a French-language treasury guarantee text referencing the law of 16 April 1827, with multiple manuscript signatures and their respective official designations. |

| Opmerkingen |
Haiti's 1827 100 Gourdes note was issued under President Jean-Pierre Boyer, whose administration was simultaneously managing the catastrophic indemnity payments to France — 150 million francs demanded by Charles X in exchange for diplomatic recognition. Boyer had agreed to those terms in 1825, and domestic treasury paper of this period exists largely because the national coffers were being systematically drained to service that debt. The gourde had been under severe pressure since independence, and government-issued paper carried little public confidence.
Paper money from Boyer's treasury is extraordinarily rare today. Most surviving institutional records from this period were destroyed in subsequent political upheavals, making provenance nearly impossible to establish with certainty.
