| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is unprinted, presenting plain cream-coloured cotton paper with only faint ghost impressions from the obverse intaglio printing visible, consistent with the production standards of mid-nineteenth-century Canadian provincial banknotes. A simple ruled border frames the otherwise blank field, with no vignettes, text, or additional ornamentation. |

Charlotte County was a small regional institution operating out of St. Andrews, a loyalist town on Passamaquoddy Bay that had closer commercial ties to Maine than to the rest of New Brunswick. The bank's notes circulated freely across the border, and American-printed currency from Philadelphia houses like Toppan, Carpenter was the practical choice for issuers who expected their paper to pass without suspicion on both sides.
Toppan, Carpenter held the security printing contracts for several Maritime and New England banks simultaneously, which means the plate work here shares visual grammar with American state bank issues of the same period — deliberate, since cross-border acceptability depended partly on familiarity.
Charlotte County Bank's charter was not renewed after the 1860s consolidation of New Brunswick banking, leaving this among the shorter-lived colonial issues in the province.
