1915 CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO >Crisp UNCIRCULATED One PESO Note REVOLUTIONARY WAR Issue
Description
This is a choice, crisp uncirculated Un or one Peso
"Dos Caritas"
or
"two little faces"
note from
"El Estado de Chihuahua"
or the State of Chihuahua, in Mexico. A revolutionary issue, it was authorized by military decree in 1914 but this type was issued in 1915.
In 1915 with Mexico still in revolt, in midyear President Woodrow Wilson of the United States switched his support from Pancho Villa to Venustiano Carranza. Unknown to Villa, who was about to attack the town, Wilson let troops of Carranza board trains in Texas and go to Douglas, Arizona, re-cross the border and reinforce Agua Prieta. After the battle, Carranza became President of Mexico and Villa launched his famous murderous raid across the border in New Mexico.
Like the plethora of numismatic collectibles produced during the United States Civil War, there were many emergency, wartime issues of currency in Mexico at this time. Quickly disappearing, they make a fascinating and varied collection.
