| Opmerkingen |
The Trésorerie Générale d'Haïti issued paper currency under persistent fiscal strain — the country was still servicing the controversial 1825 indemnity debt owed to France, a payment forced in exchange for diplomatic recognition that drained Haitian public finances for decades. Notes of this type circulated in an economy where metallic currency was scarce and public trust in government paper was fragile at best.
Pick 15 is rare enough that auction appearances are infrequent, and surviving examples in any condition are genuinely difficult to place. The 1851 date puts this note squarely in the presidency of Faustin Soulouque, who had himself proclaimed Emperor Faustin I the previous year.
