| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de Cádiz was one of Spain's provincial emission banks authorized under the 1856 banking law, which briefly allowed regional institutions to issue their own notes before the Banco de España absorbed most of that privilege in 1874. By 1863, Cádiz remained a significant commercial port, and the bank's higher denominations like this one would have circulated primarily among merchants and trading houses rather than in everyday retail exchange.
The bank itself failed in 1875, and unredeemed notes were rendered worthless. Survivors are scarce precisely because the collapse gave holders little incentive — or opportunity — to return them for redemption.
