The P#86 series ran across nearly a decade, accumulating an unusual number of signature combinations as Honduras cycled through central bank governors and board members — a reliable index of the country's turbulent fiscal politics during the period, which included the aftermath of Hurricane Mitch's economic disruption and successive IMF structural adjustment negotiations.
Oberthur's involvement here is worth noting: François-Charles Oberthur's engraving credit on a 2000s-era note is something of an anachronism, as the firm increasingly separated engraving legacy credits from actual production responsibilities during this period. Whether the plates were freshly engraved or adapted from earlier work is not always clear in Oberthur's own documentation for Central American clients.
