The Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China issued this denomination primarily for interbank settlement and large commercial transactions — retail circulation of a $500 note was never the intent. By 1957 the bank was operating under increasing political pressure from newly independent governments across Asia, and its days as a note-issuing authority in most territories were already numbered.
Bradbury, Wilkinson produced some of the most technically refined colonial and commercial bank notes of the postwar period, and their work for The Chartered Bank is no exception. The single watermark security feature reflects the era's standard for high-denomination commercial issues rather than any particular vulnerability in this series.
Pick #67 is genuinely scarce at this denomination.
