5 Dollars Barclays Bank

Barclays Bank (Dominion, Colonial and Overseas) was itself a 1925 consolidation of Colonial Bank, the Anglo-Egyptian Bank, and the National Bank of South Africa — a merger engineered largely to rationalise British banking interests across multiple territories under a single issuing umbrella. Notes under this title circulated across a patchwork of dependencies, and attribution to a specific territory requires checking the payable-at text rather than the issuer name alone.

Bradbury, Wilkinson printed for numerous colonial banking clients during this period and maintained tight security procedures — serial numbering, plate registration, and paper sourcing were all handled in-house at New Malden.
