Chihuahua was the financial backbone of the Villista war effort, and the state government issued paper money on a scale no other Mexican state attempted during the Revolution. This 20 Pesos belongs to the flood of emergency currency authorized under Governor Manuel Chao and backed, nominally, by state resources that were in practice controlled by División del Norte logistics.
Two printers are associated with this series — Maverick-Clarke in San Antonio and Norris Peters in Washington — reflecting the scramble to source printing capacity across the border when domestic options were unavailable or compromised. Maverick-Clarke had deep roots in commercial and government lithography across the American Southwest, making San Antonio a natural hub for revolutionary procurement.
Counterfeiting of Chihuahua notes was rampant by mid-1914, driving successive reissues with altered security features.
