Commenti	The Banco de Tacna occupied an unusual position in South American banking history. Tacna was a contested territory between Peru and Chile following the War of the Pacific (1879–1884), and the city remained under Chilean administration until 1929 — meaning this bank operated in a zone of disputed sovereignty for much of its existence. Notes issued by Tacna-based institutions during the Chilean occupation period circulated alongside Chilean currency in a region whose ultimate national allegiance was still legally unresolved. ABNC supplied the plates, as they did for the overwhelming majority of Latin American private banks of this period. The Pick reference places this in the Peruvian section, which itself reflects the political outcome rather than the note's operational reality.
