| Comments |
The Banco Central de Reserva de El Salvador issued this series across a notably long window — 1973 to 1980 — a period that straddled El Salvador's deepening political instability and the early tremors of what would become full civil war by 1979. Denominations in active daily use during this period often show heavy circulation wear; the 2 Colones was a workhorse value, not a note that sat in wallets.
Pick 116 runs through multiple date and signature varieties, making exact attribution dependent on the specific signing combination. Collectors working this series need to treat each date as potentially distinct rather than interchangeable.
