OLD IRISH BANK NOTES

January 26th, 2012

Filed Under: News with 0 Comments

Series ‘A’ Banknotes 1928-1977

The initial series of notes, called “Series A”, was devised by the Currency Commission, these notes were printed by Waterlow and Sons, Limited, London which was acquired by De La Rue.

The commission created an advisory committee which determined the theme and design of the notes. Notes were in the denominations of 10/-, £1, £5, £10,£20, £50, and £100.

Each note has a portrait of an Irish colleen, believed to be Lady Lavery– wife of the artist Sir John Lavery,who was commissioned to design this The predominant theme on the notes is the rivers of Ireland, which aredepicted as heads taken from the Custom House, Dublin.

Whilst there was some uncertainty as to which rivers were depicted it is agreed that rivers in both the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland were chosen. Each note also contains a watermark of the Head of Erin.

Irish lady lavery & ‘ploughman’ series banknotes have always enjoyed a very strong following amongst collectors.

As with the coinage of Ireland, the advent of online outlets especially ebay, irish banknotes are now widely available to collectors internationally.

Bearing this in mind, & that Ireland is no longer issuing a seperate currency (coins & banknotes),

these banknotes (particularly the better examples) represent a sound investment as supply inevitably declines.
