| 表面の説明 | The obverse is printed in dark green and black on a pale orange-buff underprint. A central vignette shows a reclining allegorical female figure beside a harbour scene with buildings and a vessel in the background. To the left, a second vignette presents a tall-masted sailing ship at sea within an arched frame, while a smaller circular vignette at the lower right contains a building, likely the bank's premises. The denomination numeral '20' appears in each corner, with the bank's title and capital information inscribed across the upper portion. |

The Banco de Maracaibo was a regional commercial bank based in Zulia State, not a national institution, yet it held note-issuing privileges during the period when Venezuela's banking sector remained fragmented and decentralized. By 1917 that era was already ending — Caracas was steadily consolidating monetary authority, and privately issued provincial banknotes were being phased out across the country.
The American Bank Note Company contract likely reflects the bank's commercial ambitions and access to export revenues from the Maracaibo Basin's cattle and coffee trade, years before petroleum transformed the region's economy entirely.
