Obverse description Black intaglio on an orange guilloche underprint, with the central text panel flanked by two lateral vignettes — a Highland hunter with dogs beside a waterfall at left, and a seated female figure with a lamb and harvesting basket at right. The upper portion carries an engraved panoramic vignette of Inverness town and castle viewed from the River Ness across a stone bridge, with monogram medallions enclosing a stylised £1 at the upper corners and Gaelic legends running vertically along both side borders. The founding date 1838 appears in a cartouche at the foot of the note, and the printer's imprint of George Waterston & Sons, Edinburgh is placed at the lower right.
