| Comments |
Prometheus Island National Bank does not appear in any verified issuing authority registry, and no sovereign or dependent territory by the name of Prometheus Island is recognized by any international body. This note cannot be authenticated as a legitimate circulating banknote. It is almost certainly a novelty, fantasy, or promotional piece — the Richard Arkwright attribution places it in a well-worn tradition of commemorative fantasy currency invoking historical figures with no actual monetary connection to the issuer.
