Anmerkungen

The Banco Nacional de la República de Colombia was established in 1881 as a state monopoly issuer, displacing the private banks that had flooded the country with competing paper currencies through the 1870s. This fractional note — denominated in the transitional dual-unit system bridging centavos and reales — belongs to the bank's early emission period, when the Colombian government was still fighting to consolidate monetary authority against significant commercial resistance.

The American Bank Note Company supplied the entire series. ABNC's New York plant was the dominant supplier to Latin American governments throughout this period, and the quality of intaglio work on these small-denomination notes often exceeded what the issuing governments themselves considered necessary for coins-replacement scrip.
