The Banco de Barranquilla was one of several private Colombian banks issuing fractional notes during the Thousand Days War (1899–1902), when metallic coin effectively vanished from everyday commerce. Small-denomination paper — centavos rather than pesos — filled the gap left by hoarding and disrupted supply chains. This 20 centavos piece is among the more locally produced examples of that phenomenon: Armenta & Prieto were a Barranquilla commercial printing firm, not a specialist banknote house, and the print quality reflects that.
The war would eventually lead to Law 33 of 1903, which liquidated most private banks of issue and consolidated currency authority in Bogotá.
