The Bank of New Brunswick was a short-lived chartered institution operating out of Fredericton, and this 1831 pound note belongs to a period when the Maritime provinces were still navigating the awkward coexistence of sterling-denominated paper and the Spanish and American silver coins that actually circulated in trade. Perkins, Fairman & Heath — the London firm known for their steel-engraved security printing and the patent for siderography — produced the plates, a common arrangement for colonial banks that lacked any domestic printing infrastructure capable of resisting counterfeiting.
The bank collapsed before Confederation was even a political conversation, leaving its notes as orphaned instruments of a credit system that never fully matured.
