Opmerkingen

The National Bank of Greece turned to the American Bank Note Company for this series at a moment when the country was still climbing out of the 1893 debt default and the humiliating 1897 defeat against the Ottoman Empire. Foreign-printed notes carried an implicit credibility that domestic production could not yet offer — the ABNC imprint alone was a form of collateral in markets where Greek paper was viewed with suspicion.

ABNC's intaglio work on Greek commissions from this period is among the finer output the New York firm produced for southern European clients. The engraving quality repays close examination.
