The Cape Commercial Bank was a relatively short-lived institution that collapsed in 1890, and its Potchefstroom branch operated in what was then the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek — meaning this note crossed a political boundary, issued by a Cape Colony-chartered bank but payable in a Transvaal town. That arrangement was not unusual for the period, but it made these notes legally ambiguous tender in a territory that viewed foreign banking institutions with considerable suspicion.
Potchefstroom was the original capital of the ZAR before Pretoria assumed that role, which gave the branch a prominence that outlasted its political relevance. Very few branch-specific notes from the Cape Commercial Bank survive in any denomination.
