Colombia's Tesorería General stepped in as issuer here because the Banco Nacional — the republic's main note-issuing institution — had been liquidated by law in 1894 following chronic over-issuance and the inflation crises of the 1880s and 1890s. Treasury notes of this type were a stopgap measure in an economy that would not establish its central bank, the Banco de la República, until 1923.
ABNC printed the series in New York on contract, as they did for a substantial portion of Latin American fiduciary paper in this period. The "provisional" designation in the title is not rhetorical — these cédulas were explicitly intended as a temporary instrument pending a more permanent monetary settlement that kept being deferred.
