The Royal Bank of Canada operated branches throughout the Caribbean from the early twentieth century, and this note reflects the awkward transitional moment when Barbados was moving away from sterling-denominated accounting. The dual denomination — 100 Barbados Dollars expressed alongside its sterling equivalent of 20 Pounds 16 Shillings 8 Pence — was not decorative; it was a legal and commercial necessity for a colony where both systems ran concurrently in trade and contract settlement.
American Bank Note Company's Ottawa facility handled the job. By 1920 that plant had been printing Canadian chartered bank issues for decades, making it the natural choice for a Canadian-chartered bank's colonial branch currency.
