Venezuela's leprosarium currency system was one of the longest-running quarantine monetary schemes in Latin America. The Leproserías Nacionales issued their own scrip to prevent patients — legally confined to isolation colonies — from using currency that might re-enter general circulation. The Ministry of Health administered the program, and notes were valid only within the colony boundaries, essentially functioning as a closed monetary economy enforced by public health law.
The 1940 series was printed domestically. Surviving examples of any denomination from this issue are scarce; the user population was small and the notes were not intended to leave the colonies.
