The Royal Canadian Bank was chartered in 1869 — which makes a note dated 1865 an impossibility unless the date refers to something other than year of issue. No verifiable circulation or printing records confirm this note's existence under that issuer at that date, and P#1945 does not correspond to any standard Pick catalogue reference for Canadian chartered bank issues, which are typically documented through the Canadian Chartered Banknote series rather than Pick at all.
The British American Bank Note Company did print for numerous Ontario chartered banks from its Ottawa operations beginning in the early 1870s. Without confirmed attribution, this entry cannot be completed responsibly.
