There are 109 Lots of Irish banknotes, with a good range of Ploughman notes. The catalogue is available online: www.noonans.co.uk
Highlights of the sale include the following Lots.
Irish joint stock banks
Lot 223. Bank of Ireland, £1, 29 October 1881. Est. £3,000-£4,000. Attractive Fine.
A nice example of a Craig signature note with 4 lines of branches in sans-serif type.
Consolidated Bank Notes 'Ploughman series'
Lot 268. Currency Commission, Hibernian Bank, £1, 10 April 1939. GVF. Est £300-£400. Hibernian £1 notes are scarce this nice, and this example ought to do well.
Lot 270. Currency Commission, Hibernian Bank, £10, 2 October 1931. fine with minor ink marks. Est £1,200-£1,600.
It has been a while since a decent Hibernian £10 note has been offered - this example ought to do well.
Lot 272. Currency Commission, National Bank Ltd, £1,3 January 1936. Nice GVF-EF. Est £240-£300.
Lot 273. Currency Commission, National Bank Ltd, £5, 15.3.33. Nice AEF. Est £1,000-£1,500.
This example is from a known run of sequential notes in grades ranging from GVF to AU.
Lot 279. Currency Commission, Ulster Bank, £10, 9 August 1939. GVF. Est £3,000-£4,000. Conservatively estimated, this note will likely fetch double the estimate. It is the nicest grade Ulster £10 note to be offered in over a decade.
Legal Tender notes 'Lady Lavery series'
Lot 281. Currency Commission Ireland,£5, 9 March 1939. GVF. Est £200-£260. Well better than average grade for a 1939 £5 note.
Lot 284. Currency Commission Ireland, £1, 8 January 1942, About EF. Est £180-£220. A nice example of a war code £1 note.
Lot 287. Currency Commission Ireland, £5, 5 June 1942. Original VF. Est £200-£260. War code D, one of the more difficult codes to obtain in decent grade.
Lot 306. Central Bank of Ireland, specimen £50, 2 May 1905 (fictitious date), Whitaker and
Murray signatures. Est £1,000-£1,400. A less common specimen with ‘Specimen’ perforated rather than printed.
Lot 308. Central Bank of Ireland, £100, 10 April 1975. Est £600-£800. GEF. A nice example which should sell well.
Lot 310. Central Bank of Ireland, £10 replacement note, 10 February 1975. Est £150-£240. GEF-AU. Lavery £10 replacement notes are scarce this nice, and seldom offered. this example should do better than the estimate.
Some Lots to watch
Lot 316 and Lot 317. Central Bank of Ireland, £50, 4 April 1977.
Two notes in sequence. Both notes are graded PMG 64 EPQ, and estimated at £1,200-£1,600. This pair of notes will be an interesting test of the market for the sub-66 grade range for these notes.
Lot 318, Lot 319 and Lot 320. Central Bank of Ireland, £100, 4 April 1977.
Three £100 notes in sequence, the first EF (Est £400-£500), the subsequent two GVF (Est £300-£400 each). These will be a good test of the general collector market for these notes.
