The Junta de Conversión was Colombia's transitional monetary authority, established to manage the country's return to convertibility after the inflationary chaos of the War of the Thousand Days and its aftermath. By 1922, the Junta was issuing these Bonos del Tesoro as a form of treasury obligation with currency function — not strictly banknotes, but circulating as such in practice.
The overprint on this note almost certainly reflects a change in authorized signatory, issuing conditions, or redemption terms applied to an existing printed stock — a common ABNC-client practice that avoided the cost of a full new print order. Worth examining closely: such overprints on Colombian fiscal paper of this period vary considerably in ink color, placement, and even wording between batches.
