| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Comercial was a regional institution based in Maracaibo, operating during a period when Venezuelan provincial banks — not the central government — were the primary issuers of paper currency. The bank later rechartered under the name Banco Comercial de Maracaibo, and notes issued before that change carry the earlier institutional name, creating a practical dating problem for collectors trying to narrow issue windows.
American Bank Note Company produced the plates in New York, as they did for much of Latin American banking paper in this period. At 1,000 bolívares, this was a high-denomination commercial instrument — not intended for everyday exchange but for large mercantile transactions in what was then Venezuela's most important oil-free commercial port.
