The Oriental Bank Corporation, chartered in Bombay in 1842, became one of the most expansive British overseas banks of the Victorian period — at its peak operating branches from Aden to Yokohama. Perkins, Bacon & Co. handled the note printing, the same London firm responsible for many colonial currency contracts and, famously, the world's first adhesive postage stamp.
The bank collapsed catastrophically in 1884, following bad debt exposure in Ceylon's failing coffee plantations. Notes from the 1864–1877 issue period predate the crisis by years, but surviving examples are uncommon — most were either redeemed or cancelled during the bank's final wind-down by the liquidators.
