备注	St. John's was one of several Jersey parishes that issued their own notes during the early nineteenth century, a practice rooted in the island's constitutional separation from the British banking system — the Bank of England's writ did not extend to Jersey, and no joint-stock bank operated there until much later. Parish notes filled the gap, backed by nothing more formal than local trust and the creditworthiness of the parish vestry. Perkins, Bacon & Petch were the right choice for a small issuer wanting security printing. Jacob Perkins had pioneered steel engraving and the siderographic transfer process specifically to defeat counterfeiters, and even modest commissions from provincial or island authorities got the benefit of that technology. Jersey parish notes of this period are genuinely uncommon survivors — most circulated hard in tight local economies before being redeemed and destroyed.
