| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Nacional de la República de Colombia was established by law in 1880 as a state monopoly issuer, replacing the chaotic proliferation of private bank notes that had plagued Colombian commerce for decades. This 1886 issue falls squarely within the bank's early operational period, when the government was still consolidating its grip on paper currency after years of competing regional emissions.
Homer Lee Bank Note Company held a relatively brief window of operation — roughly a decade — before being absorbed into larger consolidations of the American security printing industry. Colombian commissions represent a meaningful portion of their documented output.
