The Banco Nacional de los Estados Unidos de Colombia was established by law in 1880 as the country's first government-owned bank, created partly to consolidate the chaotic proliferation of private bank emissions that had marked the 1870s. This 100 Pesos note from its earliest years of operation was printed by the American Bank Note Company — the dominant supplier to Latin American governments throughout this period — at a time when Colombia's new federal banking apparatus was still largely untested.
The denomination is high enough that retail circulation would have been limited; these moved between merchants, government accounts, and larger commercial transactions. Surviving examples tend to show either heavy handling or almost none at all.
