| 正面描述 | The obverse is engraved in a classical Victorian style, with a central vignette of the Bank's Aberdeen head office building set within an ornate border of guilloche work and repeated numeral ONE ovals at each corner. Below the vignette, the issuer's title appears in bold letterpress across a horizontal panel, followed by a handwritten promise-to-pay text reading 'ONE POUND Sterling' payable at Aberdeen, dated 4th May 1866. The lower portion carries the Aberdeen city arms crest flanked by manuscript signatures of a director and the Manager, with the foundation legend at the foot. |

The North of Scotland Banking Company, founded in Aberdeen in 1836, occupied an awkward position among Scottish issuers — large enough to maintain its own note circulation but perpetually in the shadow of the three dominant Edinburgh banks. By 1866 the bank had absorbed several smaller northern rivals and was actively defending its right to issue, a right that would survive until the company's merger with Clydesdale Bank in 1908.
The Bankers & Printers Co. attribution is worth noting — the firm handled a number of provincial British issues during this period but left a thinner documentary trail than the major London security printers, which complicates provenance research on the series.
