If anyone can expand on these numbers, drop me an email with a pic of the note.

I noticed an update for Provincial five pound.
Its only by 1 number, was in Whytes in Dublin a few months back.
Spotted another one too. Heritage had lots of notes in their sale August including Ulster £10 pounder number 01UT012932. Cant uplopad the pic, it says its too big, will email it.

Thanks for that. Amendments made.

Increase for 1939 BOI £5

Thanks for that!
This note is also an addition to the PSS data set

Increase for Royal Bank £1

Thanks! Added to the list.

Increase for Provincial Bank £1 Robertson 1929

Thanks for that, list updated.

Anyone spot the live ploughman £50 that the CBI posted on its Twitter account yesterday?

Pic attached. Also a newspaper clipping showing LTNs from the launch day.

CBI archives have some nice goodies in there!

Great to see an example of an issued £50 Ploughman note. The reverse was also beautifully designed and features the famous Irish mountain, Croagh Patrick. The attached image depicts the reverse of a £50 Ploughman Specimen note.

Increase for Royal Bank of Ireland £5 from recent Noonans auction. Sold for £2,200.
