| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue and orange on a cream ground, with the crowned Libyan royal arms in a cartouche at the left, flanked by stylised wheat-ear vignettes at the outer edges. A dense guilloche underprint in orange and green occupies the central panel, overlaid with Arabic text giving the denomination and the legal-tender and issuing authority inscriptions. The serial number appears in both the lower-left and upper-right panels, with the Bank of Libya name in Arabic script across the top. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in blue, with 'BANK OF LIBYA' in bold letterpress across the top border flanked by the £1 currency symbols at each corner. The central vignette carries the denomination 'ONE LIBYAN POUND' in large intaglio letters over an intricate geometric guilloche ground, with a legal-tender clause above it. To the left is a blank watermark window and to the right a finely engraved diamond-shaped rosette panel; the lower border carries the issuing authority and law reference in English. |
