Comments

No institution called "Banco del Isla Fernandina" has ever existed, and no Ecuadorian province or municipality on Fernandina Island has issued circulating banknotes. Fernandina (Narborough) is an uninhabited volcanic island in the Galápagos — no banking infrastructure, no issuing authority. This is almost certainly a fantasy or novelty piece with no monetary history to speak of.
