| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Nacional de los Estados Unidos de Colombia was established by law in 1880 as the government's fiscal agent, with a legal monopoly on note issue — a arrangement that immediately put it in conflict with the private banks that had been circulating their own paper freely. This 1 Peso belongs to the period of acute political tension that preceded the Thousand Days War, when currency confidence was already eroding and forced acceptance laws were being tested in the courts.
Litografía D. Paredes was a Bogotá commercial printer, not a specialist banknote firm. The use of a local lithographer rather than a European security printer reflects both economic constraint and the chronic difficulty of importing printed materials during this period.
