The Banco Internacional de Costa Rica was established in 1914 as a state-owned institution following the government's takeover of the Banco de Costa Rica — part of a broader nationalization drive that gave San José direct control over currency issuance. This 10 Colones note belongs to the bank's earliest print run, commissioned from the American Bank Note Company almost immediately after the institution was constituted.
ABNC's work for Central American issuers during this period is generally well-regarded for plate quality, but Costa Rican notes from 1914–1920 are known to suffer from tropical humidity damage, and genuinely clean survivors are less common than catalog abundance might suggest.
