The Royal Arms of Great Britain — lion and unicorn supporters flanking the crowned shield with motto DIEU ET MON DROIT — appears as a central vignette at top, with denomination counters in oval frames at upper left and right. The promise-to-pay text is set within a guilloche panel across the centre. |

| 变体 | Specimen - BADULLA, CEYLON 2nd April 1877 |
| 备注 |
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.
