| Opmerkingen |
The Gobierno Constitucionalista was Venustiano Carranza's revolutionary faction, and these tiny carton notes were emergency scrip issued during the chaotic fighting against Huerta's federal forces in 1914. The term "carton" is not metaphor — the stock used was closer to thin cardboard than banknote paper, a direct consequence of wartime material shortages in northern Mexico where Carranza's forces operated.
The extreme small format was deliberate: low denominations needed to function as change, and proper printing resources were scarce. Forgeries and local imitations circulated alongside genuine issues almost immediately.
