| Anmerkungen |
Town and County Bank Limited was a Scottish provincial bank headquartered in Aberdeen, and its notes circulated primarily across the northeast of Scotland. Perkins, Bacon & Co. were responsible for the plates — the same London firm whose steel engraving work dominated colonial and dominion currency production throughout the Victorian period, and whose hardened-steel intaglio technique produced notes resistant to the period's more common counterfeiting methods.
Scottish chartered banks retained the right to issue their own notes long after English provincial banks lost that privilege, which is why a relatively modest regional institution could still be commissioning its own pound notes in 1894. Town and County was absorbed into the Union Bank of Scotland in 1907.
