| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Franco-Platense was one of several foreign-backed private banks operating in Buenos Aires during the brief provincial free-banking period of the 1860s–70s, when Argentine law permitted chartered institutions to issue their own circulating notes. French capital underwrote the venture, hence the bilingual institutional name. The American Bank Note Company in New York produced the plates, as it did for most of the region's private issuers during this period — Buenos Aires banks rarely had access to domestic intaglio printing of comparable quality.
The bank's charter was revoked following the Argentine banking crisis of the early 1870s, which dramatically curtailed the lifespan of notes from this issuer. Survivors are uncommon.
