| Opmerkingen |
Banco Anglo Costarricense was established in 1863 as Costa Rica's first chartered bank, a joint venture operating under British banking principles in a country that had no domestic note-issuing tradition. This 1864 issue is among the earliest banknotes printed for any Costa Rican institution. Bradbury, Wilkinson & Company, already well established in security printing by this date, handled the production in London — the finished sheets then shipped to San José for signature and release.
The orange paper composition is notable: tinted paper was a deliberate anti-counterfeiting measure favored by Bradbury Wilkinson in this period, harder to replicate with the lithographic equipment available in Central America at the time.
