| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de la República was established in 1923 as Colombia's central bank, created directly from the recommendations of the Kemmerer Mission — the U.S. financial advisory team that redesigned monetary systems across five Latin American countries in the 1920s. This note belongs to the bank's earliest emission series, issued before Colombia's own printing infrastructure existed, hence the ABNC contract.
The 100 Pesos Oro denomination was significant: "Oro" distinguished gold-backed pesos from the discredited paper pesos of the previous century, when Colombia had suffered some of the worst hyperinflation in South American history. The designation was as much political as monetary.
P#375A is notably scarce — the series had limited distribution and surviving examples in collectible condition are rarely encountered outside specialist auctions.
