Anmerkungen

Haiti's 1915 Treasury bonds were issued under conditions of acute financial desperation — the country was weeks away from the U.S. Marine landing in July of that year, which preceded the American occupation that would last until 1934. These instruments were essentially emergency domestic debt, circulating as currency substitutes when the Banque Nationale d'Haïti's reserves were already compromised by French and German creditor pressure.

Pick 129 is among the less-documented Haitian issues of the period. Surviving examples are genuinely uncommon, partly because Treasury bond-style notes were often redeemed or destroyed when the occupation administration reorganized Haitian public finances after 1915.
