Haiti Banknotes, Production Material, Vignettes

and One Unique Printing Plate

 Lot # 2355. Haiti Banque De La Republique D'Haiti Unique Proof Sheet.

1988. P-251; P-252 Unlisted. 250; 500 Gourdes Unique compound proof sheet, top face block of 6 on banknote paper with

plate numbers and production information engraved into plate on top margin. Sheet of 4, 250 Gourdes, olive green banknotes on

right with large gutter on left separating them from a vertical pair of 500 Gourdes, pinkish red on left. Unlisted as proof in Pick or

in this format. Choice Unc. Rare if not unique proof. ABNC.

 

 
 
 
Lot # 2317. Haiti Republique D'Haiti. 1884-1892. P-Unlisted; P-101. 1 Gourde Unique model or mockup by ABNC of a proposed issue very similar to P-101 but with the portrait of J.J.Dessalines at right instead of left and Haiti Arms on left instead of right. Pieces were cut from other notes to fabricate the face of this model and then pasted onto graph like paper on the front. The back has an entire note of P-77, in VG to VG+ condition if it were removed. It has been pasted face down on the back of the graph paper and then a small 2.6 by 2 inch white piece of paper has been added, covering the old legend text with hand written updated issue text for the 1892 issue instead. To make this model, it appears that the designers had to cut up an XF condition P-75 (CV$650 in Fine) to use on the borders and a P-77 for the vignetteand text. P-77 that is intact but pasted face down on the back of this model catalogs for $200 in good and $500 in fine. Historical essay model that evidently was altered to the final version of P-101. ABNC
