Paraguay 1907 Banco de la República 5 Pesos with 1912 dual-side state and Treasury revalidation overprint, Pick Unlisted, base Pick 156, showing Emisión del Estado on the face and Departamento de Hacienda Junta Fiscalizadora Cincuenta Centavos Oro Sellado validation on the reverse, printed by Waterlow & Sons, London, raw uncirculated

Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 5 Pesos with 1912 Dual-Side State and Treasury Revalidation Overprint (Pick Unlisted, Base Pick 156)

Uncirculated 1907 Banco de la República 5 Pesos note, printed by Waterlow & Sons, London, and later transformed by the 1912 Paraguayan emergency revalidation process. The note is based on the original 1907 Banco de la República 5 Pesos issue, cataloged as Pick 156, but this dual-side state and Treasury validation format appears to stand outside the standard catalog listing and is therefore best treated as Pick Unlisted, base Pick 156. The face carries the large oval state overprint “Emisión del Estado – Ley de 11 de Enero de 1912,” while the reverse bears the additional Treasury validation “Departamento de Hacienda – Junta Fiscalizadora – Cincuenta Centavos Oro Sellado – Conforme Decreto de 20 de Mayo 1912.” This dual-side structure places the note among the most historically informative forms of Paraguay’s 1912 provisional paper money.

Paraguay 1907 Banco de la República 5 Pesos with 1912 Emisión del Estado state overprint on the face, Pick 127, base Pick 156, printed by Waterlow & Sons, London, PMG 64 Choice Uncirculated

Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 5 Pesos with 1912 State Overprint (Pick 127, Base Pick 156)

The 5 Pesos denomination is especially useful for understanding the full logic of the 1912 revalidation process. The base note carries the monetary wording “Moneda Nacional ó Cincuenta Centavos Oro Sellado,” linking the paper denomination to a gold-referenced value formula. This phrase was already part of the 1907 design, but in 1912 it became more meaningful because the government was attempting to preserve official monetary order while ordinary paper confidence was under pressure. The state overprint did not create the gold-value clause; it placed state authority over a note that already carried it. Read more →

Paraguay 1907 Banco de la República 5 Pesos issued note, Pick 156, original non-overprinted base type later used for the 1912 state overprint Pick 127 and the dual-side Treasury revalidation variety, printed by Waterlow & Sons, London, with 5 watermark and Moneda Nacional ó Cincuenta Centavos Oro Sellado clause, PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated

Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 5 Pesos Issued Note (Pick 156)

The monetary wording on the face is central to the note’s historical meaning. The printed clause reads “Moneda Nacional ó Cincuenta Centavos Oro Sellado,” identifying the 5 Pesos paper denomination with a formal value relationship to fifty centavos in sealed gold. In 1907, this language belonged to the original Banco de la República issue. By 1912, the same wording became highly important because the Paraguayan state used it as part of the logic behind the later emergency revalidations. The overprints did not invent the gold-reference language; they were applied to notes that already carried it. This issued example shows that original value formula before crisis-era state intervention changed the note’s legal and fiscal status. Read more →

Paraguay 1907 Banco de la República 100 Pesos issued note, Pick 159, non-overprinted base type later used for the 1912 state overprint issues, printed by Waterlow & Sons, London, with 100 watermark and Moneda Nacional ó Diez Pesos Oro Sellado clause, PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated

Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 100 Pesos Issued Note (Pick 159)

At the center of its importance is the monetary clause printed on the face: “Moneda Nacional ó Diez Pesos Oro Sellado.” This wording gave the 100 Pesos paper denomination a formal relationship to ten sealed gold pesos. In 1907, that phrase belonged to the legal and monetary structure of the original Banco de la República issue. By 1912, during Paraguay’s political and fiscal crisis, the same phrase became central to the meaning of the emergency overprints. The government’s later overprinted notes did not invent the gold-value language; they reactivated and reaffirmed language already present on this base issue.
