Banco Occidental was one of several Colombian departmental banks chartered under the 1880 banking law that briefly allowed private regional institutions to issue their own currency. The arrangement lasted roughly two decades before the government moved to consolidate note-issuing authority, which makes the entire output of these banks relatively short-lived by design.

ABNC produced notes for dozens of Latin American issuers during this period, often reusing plate elements across clients — worth checking whether the vignette work here appears in other Colombian departmental issues from the same years.
