Opmerkingen

Costa Rica's Ministerio de Hacienda y Guerra — the combined Finance and War Ministry — issued currency directly rather than through a chartered bank, a practice that reflected the country's near-total absence of formal banking infrastructure at the time. The first commercial bank, the Banco Anglo-Costarricense, would not be established until 1863, and it remained fragile; government-issued notes filled the gap.

Bradbury, Wilkinson had only recently separated from Perkins Bacon and was building its own roster of Latin American clients in the 1860s. This is among their earlier commissions from Central America.
