The Banco Internacional de Costa Rica was the country's de facto central bank from 1914, absorbing the note-issuing functions that private banks had previously held. By 1933, Costa Rica was deep in the Great Depression's grip, and the 100 Colones denomination would have seen limited day-to-day use — it was a substantial sum relative to average wages of the period.
Waterlow & Sons produced the series, and their work for Latin American issuers during the 1930s was generally of high intaglio quality. The same London firm was simultaneously printing for several other Central and South American central banks, which occasionally led to shared plate architecture across different national issues.
The Banco Internacional was dissolved in 1936 when the Banco Nacional de Costa Rica superseded it, making this a terminal series with a short window of legitimate issue.
