Description
Banco Internacional had been the Banco Ango-Ecuadoriano and later became the Banco Comercial y Agricola. There is currently a bank with that name in Ecuador. It seems not to be related to the 19th century entity.
For organizational purposes, banknote collectors tend to make a distinction between national issues and local issues. The Standard Catalog of World Paper Money has a volume dedicated to “specialized” issues, where about 20,000 items are listed. A “complete” catalog would likely have at least 10 times that number. The Standard Catalog numbers for “specialized” notes are designated P-S. There are special catalogs for various series such as German and Austrian notgeld, former Soviet Union, etc.
