| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in purple and green tones, with the title 'TERRITORY OF WESTERN SAMOA' arching across the top within an intricate guilloche border, flanked by '£1' numerals at each upper corner. A central vignette presents a traditional Samoan fale (thatched dwelling) set among palm trees, framed by ornate rosette underprints and the denomination panel 'ONE POUND' in an intaglio cartouche. The note bears a Wellington date, two serial numbers, and two manuscript signatures — one for the Minister of Island Territories for New Zealand and one for the Secretary to the New Zealand Treasury. |
