Opmerkingen

Banco del Departamento de Bolívar was one of several Colombian regional banks authorized under the 1880 banking law, which allowed departmental governments to issue their own currency — a decentralized arrangement that persisted until the Banco de la República absorbed the privilege in 1923. Hamilton Bank Note Company printed for dozens of Latin American clients during this period, and their work for the Colombian regional banks is well-documented, though the Bolívar issues are among the less frequently encountered.

The 1888 date places this note in the middle of Colombia's chronic fiscal turbulence leading toward the Thousand Days War of 1899–1902, during which most surviving departmental paper became worthless almost overnight.
