Henequén — the agave-derived fiber used for binding twine — dominated Yucatán's economy so completely by 1914 that the state's regulatory commission issued its own currency tied to the trade. The Mexican Revolution had severed reliable coin supplies from the federal government, leaving commercial centers like Mérida to improvise. This note is among the more regionally specific emergency issues of the period: backed not by a bank or a treasury, but by a commodity monopoly.
Printed locally by Guerra's Mérida shop rather than contracted abroad, the production quality reflects what was available under wartime conditions. Hoyos and Manzanilla are both Yucatecan names, confirming this was entirely a local operation from design through press.
