Opmerkingen

The Banco Nacional de la República de Colombia had a troubled final chapter. Colombian law abolished the bank in 1894 following years of controversy over its note-issue monopoly, but the institution lingered in a wind-down state — and the financial chaos of the Thousand Days War (1899–1902) forced emergency fractional issues like this one into circulation regardless. Small-denomination paper was a practical necessity when metallic coin had largely disappeared from everyday trade.

Printed domestically rather than abroad, the production quality reflects the constraints of a country at war with itself. Colombian-printed issues from this period are noticeably cruder than the bank's earlier London or American Bank Note Company work.
