| Opmerkingen |
Haiti's Trésor Public issues of the 1870s were produced during a period of chronic fiscal instability, when successive governments struggled to maintain any credible backing for paper currency. The 20 Gourdes denomination from 1871 falls within a series that circulated alongside foreign coin and was routinely discounted by merchants who distrusted state-issued paper.
Survivors are genuinely rare. The tropical climate was hard on paper currency, and periodic currency reforms — particularly the overhaul that followed the 1872 political upheaval under Nissage Saget's administration — resulted in mass redemption and destruction of outstanding notes.
