Of the Aberdeen-based banks only the Town and County issued notes in the denomination of 10 pounds. The 1882 series also included the more usual 20 pounds as well as a very rare £100.
In 1882 the Aberdeen Town and County Bank was registered under the Companies Act of 1879. Consequently, on the note series of 1882 the Bank's title is altered to "The Town and County Bank Limited".
