| 备注 |
The Asiatic Banking Corporation was one of several British overseas banks chartered in the mid-1860s speculative boom — a period when London financiers flooded Asia with undercapitalized joint-stock institutions. This one collapsed in 1866, the same year as the Overend, Gurney & Co. failure that triggered a wider banking panic. The window between establishment and failure was narrow enough that few notes ever reached extended circulation.
Smith, Elder & Co. are better known as publishers — Thackeray, Charlotte Brontë — than as security printers, which makes their involvement here an oddity worth noting.
