| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Nacional de Chile was one of several private commercial banks operating under Chile's 1860 banking law, which permitted note issuance against specie reserves. By 1886 that system was already under strain — Chile had suspended convertibility in 1878 to finance the War of the Pacific, and private bank notes were circulating alongside inconvertible fiscal paper in a badly distorted monetary environment.
The American Bank Note Company held the printing contract for multiple Chilean private banks simultaneously during this period, which occasionally creates attribution confusion between otherwise similar series.
