| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of Brantford had one of the shorter lives in Canadian chartered banking history — incorporated in 1857, it collapsed in 1862, leaving creditors and noteholders scrambling. This note was issued during the bank's only real operating window, which makes surviving examples genuinely scarce rather than artificially so.
The American Bank Note Company held the contract, which was standard practice for Upper Canadian chartered banks of the period — domestic printing infrastructure simply couldn't match the security engraving capabilities available in New York.
