Honduras issued a parallel series of "Customs Notes" — Billetes de Aduana — specifically to settle import duty obligations, a mechanism used by several Central American governments when hard currency was short and customs revenue needed to be mobilized quickly. These circulated through a narrower channel than ordinary banknotes: collected at ports and border posts, remitted to the Treasury, and theoretically retired rather than recirculated. In practice, some inevitably leaked into general commerce.
ABNC printed the series from New York under contract during a period when the company held most of Central America's government security printing business. The 1937 date places this note under the Carias Andino dictatorship, which ran uninterrupted from 1933 to 1949.
