| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in green and centres on the supported royal arms within a large, elaborate guilloche rosette, with two further rosettes of similar design flanking it at left and right. The title COLONIAL BANK is lettered in an arc at the top, and the incorporation legend runs along the lower margin below the central device. The overall design is executed in a fine intaglio-style engraved style characteristic of Perkins Bacon security printing. |

The Colonial Bank was a British-chartered institution operating across the West Indies and British Guiana, ultimately absorbed into Barclays Bank (Dominion, Colonial and Overseas) in 1926. By 1917, wartime pressures on shipping and banking supply chains made note replenishment from London a logistical problem, which likely accounts for the relatively small surviving populations of this issue across all denominations.
Perkins, Bacon & Petch had held the Colonial Bank contract for decades by this point, using their established intaglio methods. The S115 designation places it firmly in the specialist rather than central-bank series — issued by a commercial chartered bank, not a colonial government authority.
