1 Peso El Banco del Estado de Mexico

El Banco del Estado de Mexico was one of several regional concession banks operating under the 1897 Ley General de Instituciones de Crédito, which gave states their own note-issuing privileges but kept them subordinate to federal oversight. By 1914, that system was collapsing. The Revolution had fractured both government authority and currency confidence, and regional bank notes were being refused, counterfeited, and forcibly replaced by Constitutionalist and Conventionist emissions simultaneously.

American Book and Printing Co. handled a significant volume of Mexican emergency and commercial printing during this period — a domestic printer filling the gap left by disrupted access to the major European security printers.
