| Opmerkingen |
The Estado de Guayana was one of several Venezuelan regional states that briefly exercised independent note-issuing authority during the federal reorganization period of the 1870s. These emissions were not backed by a central banking framework — they circulated on the credit of the state government alone, which in Guayana's case meant a remote, sparsely populated territory whose economy ran largely on cattle and rubber extraction.
The two manuscript signatures of Tomas Machado and M. Asuyo are almost certainly those of state treasury officials rather than bankers. Notes signed by hand in this manner were typical of low-volume regional issues where printed signature facsimiles were not worth the plate cost.
