Obverse description The obverse is printed in blue-black on white paper and carries a central vignette of a suspension bridge over a river with industrial buildings in the background, flanked by a numeral '1' medallion at upper left and a seated allegorical female figure at right. A smaller vignette of a large building appears at lower left, while the bold serif bank title 'The Zimmerman Bank' is inscribed across the centre above the denomination 'ONE DOLLAR' rendered in an ornate guilloche underprint panel. The place of payment, Elgin, Province of Canada, is noted below alongside a facsimile signature of Zimmerman and the statutory incorporation notice.
