| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de Occidente was a Colombian-chartered institution that operated branches across Central America in the late nineteenth century, issuing its own notes where local banking infrastructure was thin. The Guatemala branch had limited authorization to circulate paper, and denominations at this level were workhorses of daily commerce rather than reserve instruments — meaning genuine survivors with any honest wear are harder to find than the higher values, which saw proportionally less handling.
ABNC plates from this period were frequently recycled across multiple Latin American clients with only the overprinted or engraved text distinguishing one issuer from another. Worth examining closely for any plate letter or series designator that might establish which print run this came from.
