Vorderseitenbeschreibung Printed in blue on white paper, the note is framed by a crosshatch guilloche border with rosette ornaments at each corner. To the upper centre, the issuer title 'Jersey Bank' is rendered in elaborate copperplate script, flanked on both sides by the serial number designation. A heraldic vignette on the left displays the Jersey coat of arms with three lions passant, supported by military trophies. The large blue underprint letters 'BRITISH' span the centre of the note, over which the promise-to-pay text and denomination 'One Pound' are overprinted in script. The lower portion carries the date 'Jersey the 17th day of October 1843', the payability line 'Payable at the Exchange Office, New Street', and a manuscript signature. The denomination 'ONE POUND' appears in a cartouche at lower left.

Anmerkungen

Jersey's private banking sector in the 1840s was fragmented to a degree unusual even by Channel Island standards — a dozen or so small houses issuing their own notes with no central authority to regulate them. W.G. Le Gallais was one of the smaller operators, and this note was engraved locally by G. Hamon rather than sent to a London or Edinburgh trade printer, which was the more common route for provincial issuers seeking legitimacy through professional finish.

Local engraving at this period meant variable plate quality and limited anti-counterfeiting sophistication. The signature of William George Le Gallais appears in manuscript.
