| Comments |
The 1963 series marked an early phase of Banco Central del Paraguay's note production following the institution's establishment in 1952, with Thomas De La Rue handling the contract — a common arrangement for Latin American central banks that lacked domestic printing infrastructure at the time. The "black color" designation distinguishes this from later printings of the same P#195 type issued in different color variants, a cataloging distinction that matters more than it might appear given how frequently the two are conflated in collections.
Colmán Villamayor and Acosta's signatures place this issue within a narrow administrative window, useful for dating undated or ambiguously dated examples from this period.
