Comments

Norges Bank's Printing Works produced this note entirely in-house at Trondheim — an unusual degree of vertical integration for a mid-nineteenth century issuing authority. The paper itself came from Bentsebrug mill, one of the few Norwegian mills capable of supplying the bank's watermark requirements at the time.

The "Black print" designation distinguishes this from related issues within the A4x series and almost certainly reflects an internal production classification rather than a collector convention. Speciedaler notes of this period were retired rapidly after Norway's currency reform of 1875 converted the country to the krone system, which compressed the survival window for circulated examples considerably.
