The Cape of Good Hope Bank was one of the earliest joint-stock banks established in the Cape Colony, operating from 1837. Bradbury Wilkinson produced the plates in London, a common arrangement for colonial issuers who lacked local printing infrastructure capable of the intaglio work required for high-denomination notes.
The "18xx" dating indicates the year was completed by hand at issue — a standard practice for the period, though it complicates precise dating of surviving examples. At ten pounds, this was a substantial instrument, unlikely to have passed through many hands before returning to the bank.
