| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of New Zealand was chartered in 1861 and began issuing notes almost immediately — this pound note belongs to the earliest series the bank ever produced. Perkins, Bacon & Co. were the dominant security printers of the period, with long experience in colonial bank notes and postage stamps, and their intaglio work for antipodean issuers in the 1860s was technically well ahead of anything that could be produced locally in New Zealand at the time.
Surviving examples from this series are genuinely rare. Branch circulation in a colony with sparse settlement, rough handling, and no systematic redemption records means attrition was high and documentation thin.
