| 正面描述 | Printed in black ink, the upper portion carries an engraved harbour vignette with sailing vessels at quayside, flanked to the right by a standing female figure amid bales of goods, evoking Dundee's maritime trade. A decorative left border panel comprises interlocking floral rosettes and scrollwork with a central armorial medallion. The body of the note bears manuscript text and a handwritten cashier signature over a blue guilloche underprint of three overlapping lathe-work rosettes, with the date and place of issue inscribed in script. |

| 背面描述 | Printed in black and red, the reverse is dominated by a single large circular guilloche ornament composed of interlaced lathe-work bands arranged in a trefoil configuration within a floral outer border ring. A salmon-pink underprint carrying denomination text is visible through the centre of the guilloche design, providing a coloured contrast against the otherwise unprinted laid paper ground. |

The Dundee Commercial Bank had a short and troubled existence, collapsing in 1838 — just six years after this note's issue date — following a run on the bank triggered by broader credit instability across Scottish provincial banking. Notes from its final years are occasionally found uncirculated because they were refused by a nervous public and never formally tendered.
Scottish one-pound notes of this period occupied a politically charged space: the Bank of England had been pushing to suppress small-denomination note issue south of the border since 1826, and the Scottish banking lobby fought hard — successfully — to keep the £1 note alive in Scotland. This note is a direct product of that constitutional fight.
