THE HAITIAN REVOLUTION BEGAN IN 1791 AND ENDED IN 1804. KRAUSE CATALOG CALLS MOST HAITIAN COINS ISSUED FROM 1967-1970 "10th ANIVERSARY OF THE REVOLUTION" ISSUES. THIS IS ERRONEOUS. "PAPA DOC" WAS ENTRENCHED IN 1957, THE ISSUES ARE MORE LIKLEY HAVING TO DO WITH THE START OF HIS REIGN. HE WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT BY POPULAR VOTE, AND THOUGH HIS RULE WAS A BLOODY ONE, THERE WAS NO REVOLUTION BRINGING HIM TO POWER.
