| Opmerkingen |
Banco de Londres, México y Sud América was a British-chartered institution operating in Mexico under a concession from the Díaz government — one of only three foreign banks permitted to issue notes under the 1884 banking law. A 1,000 Peso denomination from this issuer would have been a large-value instrument, intended for commercial and interbank settlement rather than retail use, which means surviving examples with any circulation evidence are genuinely uncommon.
The American Bank Note Company handled the printing, as it did for most of Mexico's private bank concessionaires during the Porfiriato. The bank lost its right to issue notes following the 1910 Revolution and the subsequent nationalization push under Carranza.
