The Banco Nacional de Nicaragua was itself a peculiar institution — incorporated under New York state law in 1924, with the United States government holding a controlling interest until Nicaragua finally bought out the American share in 1940. This note was printed just two years before that transfer, during a period when the bank's foreign incorporation was a constant irritant to Nicaraguan nationalists. Hamilton Bank Note Company handled the printing work throughout the series.
The córdoba had replaced the peso in 1912 specifically to stabilize exchange against the U.S. dollar at a fixed rate of one-to-one — a parity that held, with interruptions, for decades.
