| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of Nassau was a short-lived private institution operating in the Bahamas during the mid-to-late nineteenth century, issuing notes in a colonial monetary environment where sterling-denominated paper from local banks competed uneasily with British coin. Charles Skipper & East, a London security printer active across numerous colonial and commercial banking clients in this period, produced the plates — a common arrangement for small island issuers who lacked the infrastructure or volume to justify domestic printing.
The "Victoria Brown" designation in dealer and catalog usage refers to the color variant, distinguishing it from other issues in the P#A4 series. Surviving examples are genuinely scarce; the bank's limited operational history meant small print runs, and the humid Bahamian climate has not been kind to nineteenth-century paper.
