First currency notes were introduced in India by Bank of Bengal initially known as Bank of Calcutta in early 1800. Initially, Bank of Bengal only introduced one sided notes for limited circulation as substitute for gold mohurs. These notes were printed on one side while leaving blank other side of notes. However, later bank also introduced both side printed and more advanced notes for commercial use.
