A very rare Cornish provincial banknote dated 25th October 1818. The Bank failed the following year and one of the notes on the reverse refers to it being exhibited at bankruptcy proceedings.
A nice piece of social history. The note has numerous spits and holes to the main body of the note, but is still intact. Ink bleeds from writing to the reverse.
