25 Pesos

Honduras issued paper currency through a succession of short-lived private and state banks during the late nineteenth century, and this 25 Pesos note falls within a period of significant monetary instability on the isthmus. The República de Honduras notes of this era were typically contracted to foreign printers — the American Bank Note Company handled much of Central American government printing at this time — though attribution for this specific series requires caution without confirmed imprint evidence.

The embossed seal was a low-cost authentication measure common when intaglio security printing was beyond budget or logistical reach. It did relatively little to deter skilled counterfeiters.
