Mauritius Special Finance Committee $1 1.9.1842 Pick 1F. Eighteen Examples. It is unclear what emergency the Special Finance Committee was facing in 1842, but we do know that the solution was to issue $1 notes which were redeemable in specie in 1844. These emergency notes were printed on the backs of Mauritius Commercial Bank or Mauritius Bank issues that had been cancelled and quartered. Fine or better. HID08701242017
Estimate: 2000-2500 USD
