DEF

[A note] issued by a provincial or colonial government.

CONT

During 1848–49, the provincial government issued provincial debentures, which circulated in small denominations. They were interest earning and payable one year after issue, although the government could choose to reissue them. Arguably, these debentures set the stage for the subsequent issuance of provincial notes.
