The Banco Nacional de la República de Colombia had a turbulent institutional life — it was dissolved by Congress in 1894 amid accusations that the government was using it to finance deficits through unchecked note issuance, a charge that was essentially accurate. This note falls within that contested period, when the bank's paper was increasingly distrusted in domestic commerce despite being legal tender.
The American Bank Note Company contract was a common choice for Colombian issuers seeking engraved work that would resist counterfeiting, though by the early 1890s the volume of Banco Nacional emissions had outpaced any practical deterrent effect.
