| Opmerkingen |
Banco Agrícola Mercantil was a Guatemalan private bank operating under the 1874 banking law that opened the country to chartered note-issuing institutions. The American Bank Note Company produced paper for several Guatemalan private banks during this period, and the engraving quality on the S108 series reflects the firm's standard commercial work of the late 1880s rather than any bespoke commission.
Private bank notes in Guatemala were effectively displaced after 1926 when the Banco Central de Guatemala assumed sole right of issue. Surviving examples from 1888 private issuers are uncommon simply because redemption and destruction were thorough.
