Cuban 1896 banknote

I have this Cuba 5 Pesos and it has perforations like a postage stamp on two edges, left and top on the front,they are either perforations or serrated.
I don`t see any mention of this in the World Paper money cat.
Any suggestions, thanks.

Curious. I wish I could help, but I don't know anything about Cuba notes...

Came with and without overprint it appears. The perforations are normal. How large is the note? Some smaller fractional value notes in many countries came in perforated strips or sheets since stacking small notes was impractical...

 

Many thanks,
It 4½ x 3 inches and was printed by the American Banknote Company New York

 

Do they look somewhat like this?

 

No sorry my photographs were moved.
This is the note in my original posting.

 

These were printed in sheets of four in booklet form. You can find them in sheet form and separated single notes with the counterfoil attached on the left side.
