COLOMBIA. Banco de Antioquia. 100 Pesos, ND (ca. 1870s). P-S227s. DP 5952. Specimen. PMG About Uncirculated 55. The Banco de Antioquia was founded in 1872 in Medellin. Its manager was Recaredo de Villa. A single series of notes was prepared, printed by Perkins, Bacon & Co, of which this was the highest denomination. A typical PBC design is seen, with a woman with sickle at center. The bank features the bank name and two counters. This specimen, printed on thick paper, is complete and includes the counterfoil at left. Some small tears are mentioned merely for accuracy and are not distracting. This appears to be the plate note in the Danilo Parra Ariza reference. PMG comments "Small Tears." From the Gran Colombia Collection.
