The $1 and $2 notes
After Huerta in November 1913 changed the Ley General to allow banks to issue notes in denominations below five pesos the Banco de San Luis Potosí had $1 and $2 notes printed by the American Book and Printing Company in Mexico City. The vignette of the bank's main offices had already been used on the banks's headed paper.
On 31 January 1914 it was reported that the bank had signed a contract with a North American firm to print $500,000 in $1 notesEl Imparcial, 31 January 1914 but this was obviously a misunderstanding arising from the name of the printers. The next day the Mexican Herald reported that the bank had been authorized to make an issue of one peso notes to the amount of $500,000The Mexican Herald, 1 February 1914.
