| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de Maracaibo was a regional commercial bank operating out of Venezuela's principal oil-free export hub — in 1882, Maracaibo's economy ran on coffee and hides, not petroleum. Regional banks in Venezuela during this period issued their own currency under concession, a privilege that made notes like this effectively private obligations rather than sovereign instruments. The ABNC plate work for provincial Latin American clients in the 1880s was consistently fine, though the paper on these Maracaibo issues is known to brown and spot more readily than contemporaneous ABNC output for larger national clients.
Pick 190 is genuinely rare. The Banco de Maracaibo's note-issuing life was short, curtailed well before Venezuela's 1940 banking consolidation.
