| Obverse description | The obverse is laid out in a horizontal format with the bold central inscription CENTRAL BANK OF NEW-BRUNSWICK / ONE POUND, surmounted by a Royal Arms vignette at centre.

A manuscript promise-to-pay text runs across the lower centre, dated Fredericton, 1 May 1847, with the printed legend President, Directors and Company across the top. |
