| Obverse description | The face of this letterpress-printed trial note is dominated by the full promise-to-pay text of the Montreal Bank, running across the central body and identifying the obligation as payable on demand from the joint funds of the Association. Ornamental guilloche panels and oval vignettes occupy the upper register and lateral borders, while the denomination numeral '5' appears within decorative frames at each corner. The note is hand-dated 'Montreal, 1 Mar. 1819' and carries two manuscript signatures beneath the main text legend. |
