| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Nacional de la República de Colombia had a turbulent existence — Congress voted to liquidate it in 1894, but the institution lingered in a legal and operational twilight as the country slid toward the Thousand Days War, the devastating civil conflict that began in October 1899. Notes issued in 1900 circulated under those conditions: erratic redemption, rampant inflation, and a government printing money to fund a war it was losing.
Printing in-house at the Litografía Nacional in Bogotá, rather than contracting abroad, was both a cost decision and a necessity — foreign credit was not available.
