Anmerkungen

The Bank of Otago was established in Dunedin in 1863, its founding timed almost precisely to catch the tail end of the Otago gold rush that had transformed the South Island's economic weight almost overnight. A £50 denomination was never a retail instrument — at that value, it moved between merchants, pastoralists, and the bank's own branches, rarely touching ordinary hands.

Batho & Co. of London handled the printing, a firm that serviced several colonial banking clients during this period but left little documented legacy compared to Perkins Bacon or De La Rue. The Bank of Otago itself was absorbed into the Bank of New Zealand in 1874, curtailing the series sharply. Surviving notes of this denomination are exceptionally rare.
