| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of America in Providence was one of several Rhode Island institutions that survived the wave of closures following the Free Banking era, issuing notes through the late antebellum period with relative stability. The National Bank Note Company, formed in 1859, had only just begun building its client roster when this note was produced — making it among the earlier commercial commissions the firm handled before the National Banking Acts of 1863–64 effectively ended state bank note circulation in the North.
Rhode Island state-chartered bank notes were rendered obsolete by the federal 10% tax on such issues enacted in 1865. Most went out of circulation quickly, which paradoxically means surviving examples often show light use.
