| Opmerkingen |
The American Bank Note Company periodically produced specimen cards and demonstration pieces to showcase its engraving capabilities to prospective clients — central banks, governments, and private issuers shopping for a printer. These weren't currency in any legal sense; they circulated among bank procurement officers and finance ministry officials, not the public. The 1929 date is significant: ABNC was actively courting new contracts in Latin America and Asia during this period, and specimen pieces from this year likely reflect that sales effort.
ABNC cancelled its specimens with characteristic punch holes or overprints to prevent any fraudulent tendering.
