| Anmerkungen |
El Banco de Guanajuato was one of the provincial banks chartered under Mexico's 1897 Ley General de Instituciones de Crédito, which granted state banks limited rights of note issue while keeping them subordinate to the Banco Nacional de México. The bank operated out of the silver-mining capital of the same name — a city whose wealth funded much of the Porfiriato's modernizing ambitions.
The American Bank Note Company held the printing contract throughout the note's production window. By 1913, with the Revolution dismantling the old banking order, most provincial bank notes were losing acceptance. Carranza's 1916 decree formally extinguished the concession banks, rendering all outstanding notes worthless. Surviving examples often show minimal wear — not from careful handling, but from abrupt withdrawal before they could circulate.
