The Commercial Bank of New Zealand Limited was established in 1866 — which makes a note dated 1865 an oddity worth scrutinizing. Pre-operational dating was common practice with Perkins, Bacon plates, where specimen or proof pulls could precede formal charter and trading dates by months. Whether this particular example represents an issued note or a pre-opening proof is a question the reference literature has not fully resolved.
Perkins, Bacon brought their steel-engraving anti-forgery technology to colonial banking throughout the British Empire during this period, supplying plates to dozens of institutions from New Zealand to the Caribbean.
