| Opmerkingen |
Haiti's monetary system in the early 1970s was firmly under Duvalierist control, with the Banque Nationale serving as much as a fiscal instrument of the regime as a central bank. The American Bank Note Company had been the preferred printer for Haitian issues since the mid-twentieth century, a relationship that outlasted several constitutional convulsions without interruption.
A print run of just over twelve million is modest for a circulating low denomination, suggesting replacement of a specific worn series rather than a broad monetary expansion. Heavy circulation wear is the norm for surviving examples — the 5 Gourdes saw daily transactional use and paper attrition was high in Haiti's humid tropical conditions.
