| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is arranged around a central vignette flanked by two allegorical figures: a male warrior armed with a sword at left and a female figure carrying a palm branch and laurel wreath at right, with the denomination inscribed between them. Surrounding letterpress legends in the upper and lower margins bear the bank's name, the branch location at Kingston, Jamaica, and the obligation to pay the bearer on demand. The composition is rendered in the detailed intaglio style characteristic of American Bank Note Company issues of the period. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of Nova Scotia had long operated branches in Jamaica and the British Caribbean, and this pound-denominated note was issued specifically for that trade — not for domestic Canadian circulation, where dollars were the operative currency. Pound-denominated instruments kept transactions compatible with British colonial accounting without requiring constant conversion.
The American Bank Note Company held contracts across dozens of colonial and private banking clients during this period, printing notes for institutions that lacked any domestic security printing infrastructure. The ABNC's New York plant handled the full production run.
