| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of St. Thomas operated out of St. Thomas, Ontario — a small southwestern Ontario town that was already positioning itself as a railway hub by 1860, with the Canada Southern and other lines converging there in subsequent decades. Canadian chartered banks of this period routinely contracted the American Bank Note Company in New York for engraved currency, as no domestic security printer could match ABNC's intaglio work or counterfeiting resistance.
Pick 13 places this note within a series that predates Confederation by seven years, meaning it circulated under the Province of Canada monetary framework, denominated in dollars following the 1858 decimal currency transition that displaced pounds, shillings, and pence from official Canadian finance.
