The National Bank of Greece turned to the American Bank Note Company at a time when ABNC was the prestige choice for governments that wanted intaglio work beyond what European printers were offering smaller states. Greece had been using French and British printers for earlier issues, and the shift to New York for this series reflected both the quality available and, practically, American willingness to extend credit arrangements to sovereign clients.
The 1871 start date for the series places it squarely in the period following Greece's absorption of the Ionian Islands — a territorial expansion that pushed the NBG to expand note circulation to cover newly integrated regions.
