The Banco Caracas was one of several Venezuelan private banks authorized to issue notes during the era of concurrent circulation, before the Banco Central de Venezuela consolidated control in 1940. Homer Lee Bank Note Co., a New York firm that competed with the larger American Bank Note Company for Latin American contracts, handled the printing — they were active primarily in the first three decades of the twentieth century before eventually being absorbed into larger operations.
The extended dating range of 1911–1925 reflects hand-dated issue over a long print run from a single plate order, not multiple printings. High-denomination private bank notes of this period in Venezuela saw limited day-to-day use and circulated mainly in commercial transactions between merchants and import houses.
