The Solothurnische Bank was one of roughly forty Swiss cantonal and private banks of issue that circulated their own notes before the Swiss National Bank's founding in 1907 ended the era of decentralized Swiss currency. This 50 Francs note from 1881 is among the earlier emissions from a bank that never achieved the circulation scale of its Zurich or Geneva counterparts, which is precisely why surviving examples are uncommon.
Giesecke & Devrient of Leipzig were the dominant supplier of security printing to smaller German-speaking issuers throughout this period — their work for provincial Swiss banks accounts for a significant share of the firm's 1870s–1880s output.
