| Opmerkingen |
The Intendencia de Santo Domingo issued this note during a peculiar interval in Dominican history: the country had voluntarily reannexed itself to Spain in 1861, and by 1862 the colonial administration was scrambling to manage a currency supply that the local economy had never adequately supported. These intendencia notes were a fiscal stopgap, issued under Spanish colonial authority rather than any independent Dominican institution.
The reannexation lasted only until 1865, when a guerrilla campaign — the War of Restoration — expelled the Spanish entirely. Notes issued during this window were rendered administratively obsolete almost immediately, which limits surviving examples to those that escaped redemption or destruction.
