| Beschrijving voorzijde | The note is enclosed within an intricate chain-link guilloche border. A heraldic coat of arms vignette, engraved in fine intaglio style, is positioned to the lower left, below the imprint 'W. Adams Sc. Library Place'. The bank title 'Ann Street Bank' appears in ornate script at the top centre, flanked by serial number fields. A large cross-hatched letterpress underprint reading 'BRITISH' spans the centre of the note, over which the promise-to-pay text and the denomination 'ONE POUND' are printed in cursive and bold script respectively. The denomination 'One Pound' is repeated in elaborate gothic lettering at the lower left, with an 'Entd.' entry field beneath. |

The Ann Street Bank was one of several small private banks operating in Jersey during the early nineteenth century, a period when the island's ambiguous constitutional position meant it fell outside the Bank of England's monopoly on English note issue. Local merchants and traders could — and did — establish their own issuing banks, with predictably mixed results. Several of these institutions collapsed, leaving their notes worthless.
W. Adams engraved the plate locally. The long issue window spanning nearly a quarter century suggests the bank survived longer than many of its Jersey contemporaries, though the precise date of its failure or voluntary closure is not well documented in standard references.
