| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central vignette of Lady Hazel Lavery, the celebrated portrait subject used across Irish Legal Tender Notes, presented in an oval frame at left in green intaglio, her head slightly turned and draped in a shawl. The bilingual heading of the Currency Commission Ireland / Coimisiún Airgid Reatha Éire runs across the top, flanked by the denomination numeral '£1' in each upper corner, with guilloche borders framing the note. Two manuscript signatures appear centrally, below which the date '8.3.39' is printed at lower right alongside the serial number. |

The Currency Commission was dissolved in 1943 when the Central Bank of Ireland was established, making the 1939-dated notes among the last produced under the Commission's authority. Waterlow & Sons held the printing contract throughout the Commission's existence — a relationship that predated Irish independence and carried over with remarkably little disruption.
Joseph Brennan served as the Commission's first and only Chairman; McElligott was Secretary of the Department of Finance. Their paired signatures appear across the Commission's full run, which gives collectors little help in narrowing provenance by signature alone.
