| Opmerkingen |
El Banco Oriental de México, headquartered in Puebla, was one of the regional banks operating under the 1897 Ley General de Instituciones de Crédito — the concession framework that allowed state-chartered banks to issue their own currency. By 1914 that system was collapsing. The Revolution had fractured federal authority, and Carrancista forces were actively suppressing the old Porfirian banking order. Notes issued that year circulated in a climate of extreme monetary distrust, competing against a flood of revolutionary scrip from multiple factions simultaneously.
American Book & Printing Co. was a Mexico City operation, not a prestige security printer, which shows in the relative simplicity of the engraving. The bank was formally liquidated in 1916.
