The Banco de Honduras was not the central bank — it was a private commercial institution, one of several competing banks of issue operating in Honduras before the Banco Central de Honduras was established in 1950. Notes from this period circulated alongside those of rival private banks, and the 20 Lempiras denomination sat at the upper end of what ordinary Hondurans would handle in daily transactions.
ABNC held the printing contract through most of this era. The plates were produced in New York and shipped as finished notes, a common arrangement for Central American issuers who lacked domestic printing infrastructure capable of meeting security requirements.
