Banco Potosí was one of several Bolivian provincial banks authorized under the 1871 banking law, issuing notes backed primarily by silver deposits from the mines that had defined the region for three centuries. By the mid-1890s, the silver price collapse was already undermining the collateral underpinning these obligations, and Bolivian provincial banking was consolidated by national legislation shortly after — making 1894-dated issues from this bank among the later survivors of that short-lived experiment.
Bradbury Wilkinson handled the engraving and printing from their New Malden works in Surrey, their standard production base for South American commission work throughout the period.
