Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 200 Reales Vellón Serie B Specimen Full Sheet with Header and Talón No. 07887 (Pick S452s)

The Banco de Zaragoza was established in 1857 under the banking reforms of the Law of January 28, 1856, which authorized several provincial banks to issue their own currency. The bank followed a strict denomination-to-series structure: Serie A = 100 reales, Serie B = 200 reales, Serie C = 500 reales, Serie D = 1000 reales, Serie E = 2000 reales, Serie F = 4000 reales. Its issuing privilege lasted only until 1874, when all provincial banks were absorbed into the Banco de España and nearly all circulating notes were redeemed and destroyed, leaving specimen and archival material as the primary survivors.

Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 500 Reales Vellón Serie C Issued Note No. 08785 (Pick S453a)

The Banco de Zaragoza operated from 1857 until its absorption into the Banco de España in 1874, following the brief period of liberalized private note issuance created by the 1856 banking law. The bank issued a structured series of reales de vellón: Serie A = 100 reales, Serie B = 200 reales, Serie C = 500 reales, Serie D = 1000 reales, Serie E = 2000 reales, Serie F = 4000 reales. Because most circulation notes were redeemed and destroyed during the national centralisation of currency issuance, genuine issued examples-especially in higher denominations-are exceptionally rare.

Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 200 Reales Vellón Serie B Issued Note No. 07958 (Pick S4532s)

When the bank was absorbed by the Banco de España in 1874, nearly all circulation notes were redeemed and destroyed.

Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 2000 Reales Vellón Serie E Issued Note No. 00589 (Pick S455)

The Banco de Zaragoza operated under Spain’s brief liberalised banking window (1856–1874), during which private banks were permitted to print circulating currency.

Of these, Series D, E, and F survive only in microscopic numbers; most were redeemed and destroyed following the centralisation of currency issuance under the Banco de España. Read more →

Issued Banco de Zaragoza 2000 reales vellón, Serie E No. 00500, Pick S455, 14 May 1857

Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 2000 Reales Vellón Serie E Issued Note No. 00500 (Pick S455)

The Banco de Zaragoza, active from 1857 to 1874, produced one of the most architecturally consistent and visually elaborate provincial banknote series in Spain. Its structured emission of reales de vellón comprised Serie A (100 reales), Serie B (200 reales), Serie C (500 reales), Serie D (1000 reales), Serie E (2000 reales), and Serie F (4000 reales). Of all these, issued Serie E notes are among the hardest to obtain; almost all known survivors show the characteristic circular cancellation punch used by the bank to void redeemed notes.
