Law 2776, passed in 1917, was a wartime emergency measure — Peru's gold reserves had come under pressure as European trade collapsed during World War One, and the government authorized a consortium of four private banks to issue joint circular checks as a fractional substitute for gold coinage. The arrangement was unusual: no single bank bore sole liability. Instead, all four institutions stood behind the paper collectively, a legal hedge that also served as a public confidence signal at a moment when trust in any individual bank was fragile.
The American Bank Note Company printed the series in New York. Series K suggests a relatively late print run within what became an extended issue life — Law 2776 notes circulated well into the early 1920s before Peru stabilized its monetary position.
