Commenti	El Banco Español Filipino was already an institution in decline when this note was printed — the American colonial administration was actively working to replace it with the newly chartered Philippine Islands government structure, and the bank lost its note-issuing privilege entirely in 1908. These 1904 issues were among the last the bank ever produced. Barclay & Fry were a competent but second-tier London security printer, less prominent than Bradbury Wilkinson or De La Rue, though they handled colonial and commercial bank work regularly through this period.
