2 Pesos Comisión de Extinción de Billetes

The Comisión de Extinción de Billetes — the Committee for the Extinction of Banknotes — was a Mexican body created specifically to withdraw and cancel circulating currency rather than issue new money. A note bearing that name in the issuer line is therefore an oddity: it was printed to facilitate the retirement of older obligations, functioning more as a redemption instrument than a conventional circulating banknote.

American Bank Note Company handled the printing, as it did for much of Latin American government paper in this period. The Pick A102 designation places it firmly in the provisional and transitional issues, reflecting the monetary instability that plagued Mexico throughout the Reform War aftermath and the early Restored Republic years.
