Opmerkingen

The Gobierno Provisional de Mexico operated from Veracruz under Venustiano Carranza during one of the most chaotic phases of the Revolution, when multiple competing factions were each printing their own currency. Having notes manufactured by a commercial trading company in lower Manhattan — rather than a specialist security printer — reflects both the urgency and the limited options available to a government that had not yet consolidated control.

The Parsons Trading Company address at 17 Battery Place placed it in the heart of New York's import-export district. Carrancista notes from this period are frequently encountered with authentication stamps, as the proliferation of counterfeits and rival issues forced repeated revalidation in the field.
