The Banco de la República had been issuing notes through ABNC since the early 1920s, and by 1938 the relationship was well-established enough that the plates for this series were refined iterations of earlier designs rather than fresh commissions. Colombia's monetary policy in this period was shaped heavily by the 1923 Kemmerer Mission reforms, which restructured the central bank along orthodox lines and made long-term printing contracts with American firms politically attractive as signals of institutional stability.
The "Pesos Oro" designation distinguished these notes from the earlier paper-peso system — a distinction that still mattered to Colombian commerce in the late 1930s, two decades after bimetallism had effectively collapsed.
