The Asiatic Banking Corporation was a London-registered joint-stock bank that operated briefly in the 1860s across Asian treaty ports. It collapsed in 1866 during the severe London credit crisis triggered partly by the failure of Overend, Gurney & Company — one of several colonial banks that did not survive that panic. Notes issued this close to the bank's failure rarely completed full commercial cycles, which partly explains why surviving examples of the higher denominations are extraordinarily scarce.
Pick S78 is among the rarest entries in the entire colonial Asian private bank series.
