| Opmerkingen |
Printed in Fascist Italy for Francoist Spain, this note was commissioned from the Milan firm Calcografia e Cartevalori (Coen & C.) as part of the broader effort to rebuild Spain's currency infrastructure following the Civil War. The Banco de España had been printing emergency issues throughout the conflict, and by 1940 the regime was actively rebuilding formal monetary credibility through foreign print contracts — a pattern it shared with several wartime European governments dependent on allied presses.
The engraver Garassi's contribution places this squarely in the Italian intaglio tradition. Antonio Goicoechea, one of the three signatories, had been governor of the Banco de España since 1939 and was a prominent monarchist and early Franco supporter who had met personally with Mussolini in 1934 to seek backing for the nationalist cause.
