| Anmerkungen |
The Banco Internacional de Costa Rica was established by the government in 1914 as a state-controlled institution intended to break the dominance of private banks — particularly the Banco de Costa Rica — over currency issuance. By the mid-1920s it held a near-monopoly on official paper money, and this series reflects that consolidation. The American Bank Note Company's work for Central American issuers during this period was prolific enough that some plate elements were reused or adapted across neighboring republics, though the Costa Rican notes of this run were produced on distinct plates.
The 1924–1929 date range brackets a period of relative monetary stability before the Depression-era pressures that would eventually force Costa Rica off gold convertibility.
