| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed intaglio vignette of the Bank of Sudan headquarters building occupies the center of the note, rendered with fine architectural line work against a lightly clouded background. The legend "BANK OF SUDAN" appears in bold lettering across the top, with "One Sudanese Pound" inscribed at the lower center. Decorative arabesque corner devices and numeral "1" panels frame the composition on both sides, over a multicolor guilloche underprint. |

| Opmerkingen |
By 1987, Sudan was in the grip of severe fiscal stress — the country had accumulated one of the largest external debt burdens in sub-Saharan Africa, and the central bank was under pressure to manage currency supply against chronic shortages of hard currency. Thomas De La Rue continued printing Sudanese notes through this period despite the instability, a contractual relationship that stretched back to independence-era issues.
P#39 is the last 1 Pound type before Sudan's accelerating inflation made the denomination effectively worthless within a few years. The Islamic-oriented monetary reforms of 1990–92 soon swept it out entirely.
