			1210001	1410000					see comment below

The bank, in a mass incineration carried out in Mexico City on 9 August 1918, included 200,000 $5 notes, numbered 1 to 200000, still lacking signatures, series, contraseñas or revenue stamps^{AGN, SC244 Antiguos Bancos de Emisión, caja 1405, libro 2272}. What were these? The most probable solution is that they were 1210001 to 1410000 and that the writer made a mistake. If they had been a local issue produced during the revolution by some printer such as Bouligny and Schmidt they would surely have included the signatures in the design.
