Newfoundland retained its own currency and its own treasury note issuance long after Confederation had reshaped the rest of British North America — this note appeared a full twenty-seven years before Newfoundland finally joined Canada in 1949. The American Bank Note Company's Ottawa plant handled production, that branch having been established partly to serve Canadian and colonial government contracts without the political friction of sending sensitive currency work across the border to New York.
The A14 designation reflects its position in a series that spanned several denominations and revisions across the 1920s, a period when Newfoundland's finances were under increasing strain — strain that would eventually lead to the suspension of responsible government in 1934.
