| 表面の説明 | Printed in black on white paper, the obverse is framed by a fine engraved border with ornate corner pieces. Three oval guilloche vignettes bearing the denomination numeral 100 are positioned across the upper register, flanking a central heraldic vignette of St. George and the Dragon with a lion, shield, and royal standard. Below, the promise-to-pay text is rendered in copperplate script, with manuscript spaces for date and place of issue reading Edinburgh, and a SPECIMEN overprint appears in the lower right. |

| 裏面の説明 | The reverse is essentially plain white paper with minimal printed content, consistent with early nineteenth-century Scottish banknote practice. Faint embossed or impressed marks are visible in the right-centre area, likely remnants of a dry seal or validation stamp. The surface shows age-related toning and foxing consistent with the note's antiquity. |

The National Bank of Scotland was established by royal charter in 1825, making this 1831 note among the earliest issues from an institution less than a decade old. Scottish banks retained the legal right to issue their own notes — a privilege English provincial banks lost under the Bank Charter Act of 1844 — and the National Bank exercised that right aggressively from the outset, printing across a full denomination range to compete with the already-dominant Bank of Scotland and Royal Bank.
At £100, this was not a note that passed through ordinary hands. Wholesale trade settlements and inter-merchant transfers were its natural environment. The dry seal impression, applied without moisture or wax, was the primary anti-forgery measure available at the time — rudimentary by later standards, but consistent with early 1830s Scottish banking practice.
