| Comments |
Yucatán's Constitutionalist government issued fractional cardboard notes like this one during the Mexican Revolution because silver and copper coinage had virtually vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply unavailable in a region geographically isolated from Mexico City's supply chains. These small-denomination pasteboard pieces were a local improvisation, not a coordinated federal policy.
The cream pasteboard composition makes these exceptionally vulnerable to moisture damage, and the Yucatán climate was not kind to them. Intact survivors are harder to find than their original abundance would suggest.
