The Ionian Bank was chartered in London in 1839 specifically to serve the Ionian Islands, then a British protectorate. Its early notes — of which this 1840 Pound is among the first issued — circulated in a monetary environment where the Maria Theresa Thaler and various Venetian-era silver coins still commanded more local trust than any paper instrument.
The Cephalonia designation matters: branches issued independently, making place-specific examples genuinely distinct from Corfu or Zante counterparts of the same series. P#S111 is among the rarest branch designations to surface in the market.
