10 kronor, Christianstads Enskilda Bank, 1894
Christianstads Enskilda Bank in Skåne began operating in 1865 and was one of the largest private banks. The bank issued banknotes in several denominations, initially in riksdaler riksmynt and later in kronor.
Kristianstad had been founded by the Danish King Christian IV in 1614, and so these banknotes bore his crowned monogram. The later banknotes denominated in kronor show the king’s bust portrait and the coat of arms of Kristianstad.
This banknote dating back to 1894, worth 10 kronor, was issued under the sixth charter. A charter is a period during which the bank is entitled to conduct its business. This banknote was printed by Bradbury, Wilkinson & Co in London.
Christianstads Enskilda Bank issued banknotes between 1865 and 1894 and gave up its right to issue banknotes in 1901.
