Banco Potosí was one of several Bolivian provincial banks granted note-issuing rights under the 1890 banking law, which briefly opened the country to a competitive private currency system before the Banco de la República absorbed those privileges in 1911. Bradbury Wilkinson produced the plates in London, as they did for most Bolivian provincial issues of this period — the firm held an effective monopoly on prestige South American security printing throughout the 1890s.
Potosí's mining wealth made it an obvious seat for regional banking, though by 1894 the silver economy that had defined the city for three centuries was already contracting under falling global silver prices.
