Kindly would I like to ask if anybody can tell me what F.B.C. (on the left side) stands for on that bank cheque from 1854.

Thank you very much and best regards,

Daniel

"F.B.C. & Co." is written out in long form at the bottom-right corner of the cheque. The first word looks like "Framji".

Bomanjee Framjee Cama traded under the name of F. B. Cama & Co. An advertisement in 1861 in HKGRO refers.
