备注

The Oriental Bank Corporation, chartered in London in 1842, was one of the great imperial banks of the nineteenth century — operating across India, Ceylon, China, and the Pacific. A $1000 note issued in 1851 places this firmly in the bank's early expansion into Asian trade finance, when its offices were handling opium and cotton exchange on a massive scale. Denominations of this size were not retail instruments; they moved between merchants and trading houses.

The bank collapsed in 1884, leaving extensive losses across its branch network. Survivors at this denomination are extraordinarily rare.
