| Opmerkingen |
The 25 Colones denomination had an awkward place in El Salvador's currency hierarchy — large enough to matter in daily transactions, small enough to circulate hard and wear quickly. Thomas De La Rue's production for the Banco Central de Reserva during this period was technically clean, but the mid-1990s series was already operating under the shadow of dollarization discussions that would culminate in the 2001 Monetary Integration Law, which fixed the colón at 8.75 to the dollar and effectively ended its role as a transactional currency.
Notes from the 1995–1996 print run had only a few years of active life before the colón was frozen in circulation.
