Anmerkungen	Among the earliest issues from the National Bank of Greece, this 1863 note was engraved and printed by the American Bank Note Company in New York — a firm that had only consolidated under that name in 1858 following the merger of seven competing security printers. Greek banking infrastructure in the 1860s had neither the technical capacity nor the security standards to produce its own notes domestically, making transatlantic production contracts a practical necessity rather than a luxury. The ABNC's involvement with Greek currency at this period is relatively rare in their documented contract records, which makes provenance verification on surviving examples worth attention.
