The Farmers' Joint Stock Banking Company was a short-lived Upper Canadian institution, and this dual-denomination note — payable in both dollars and shillings — reflects the monetary awkwardness of the pre-Confederation period, when sterling and decimal currencies competed in everyday commerce. The £1 5s / $5 equivalence was standard at the colonial rate of 5 shillings to the dollar.
Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson were among the most prolific security printers in North America at the time, and would merge into the American Bank Note Company just a decade later in 1858.
