The Bank of China's 1918 dollar notes were issued in a fractured monetary environment — dozens of provincial and foreign banks were all circulating their own paper simultaneously, and public confidence in any single issuer varied dramatically by region. The Bank of China itself had been reorganized just six years earlier from the old Qing dynasty's Da-Qing Bank, and its authority to issue nationally recognized currency was still being negotiated in practice, if not on paper.
Pick #51 exists in a remarkable number of place-of-payment varieties — the "q" suffix denotes a specific branch overprint, one of well over a dozen geographic variants in the series. ABNC produced a common base plate; branch identification was added separately, which is why collecting this type by locality has become a specialty in its own right.
