The Banco de Londres México y Sud América was a British-owned institution operating in Peru under a Peruvian concession, one of several foreign commercial banks that dominated Lima's financial sector in the early 1870s. The timing is significant: this note predates the catastrophic War of the Pacific by only a few years, a conflict that would effectively destroy Peru's public finances and render most private banknote issues worthless or unredeemable by the early 1880s.
ABNC produced the plates in New York, as they did for nearly every Latin American private bank of the period seeking engraved security printing. Surviving examples are scarce — the bank's Peruvian operations collapsed well before any orderly note retirement could occur.
