| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is divided into three vertical panels: the left panel carries roman numeral VI at top and bottom flanking a portrait vignette of George Washington, while the right panel mirrors this layout with the word SIX at top and bottom alongside a cow vignette. The central field is dominated by a large allegorical vignette of the Goddess of Agriculture, below which the bank title 'Peoples Bank of Paterson' is set in bold script lettering, with the denomination 'SIX DOLLARS' beneath. Two numeral counters bearing the figure '6' appear within circular frames at the upper left and right of the central panel, with the state authority inscription and printer's imprint completing the design. |

| Opmerkingen |
The $6 denomination was a product of the "broken bank" era's eccentric arithmetic — odd amounts like $3, $6, and $7 were deliberately chosen to frustrate counterfeiters, who tended to focus their efforts on round-denomination notes that were easier to pass in volume. Casilear, Durand, Burton & Edmonds was a capable New York engraving house active through the 1830s before its principals scattered into successor firms; Durand in particular became one of the more respected bank note engravers of the antebellum period.
The Peoples' Bank of Paterson operated under New Jersey's permissive pre-free-banking charter regime, and like most state-chartered institutions of the decade, its actual specie reserves bore little formal relationship to its note issuance.
