Commenti	The Estado Soberano de Bolívar was one of nine sovereign states under Colombia's Rionegro Constitution of 1863, which granted each state sweeping autonomy including the right to issue its own currency. That federal experiment collapsed with Rafael Núñez's centralizing reforms and the Constitution of 1886 — making this 1887 note an almost immediate anachronism, issued in the final months before the sovereign state structure was formally abolished and replaced by a unified Colombian republic. The Colombian Bank Note Company, operating out of Washington D.C., printed for several of these regional issuers during the 1880s. P#S106 survivors are scarce; the series had a short window of legal validity.
