| 裏面の説明 | Printed entirely in blue, the reverse is dominated by a large central intaglio vignette of Britannia seated, helmeted and draped in classical robes, resting beside a ship's prow with a globe at her side, enclosed within an oval guilloche frame. The surrounding field is filled with elaborate rosette and lozenge guilloche patterns, with numeral '1' corner motifs repeated at each angle within the decorative border. The printer's imprint 'Thomas De La Rue & Company Limited' appears in small type at the foot of the note. |

The British Linen Bank — formally the British Linen Company, chartered in 1746 originally to promote the Scottish linen trade — retained its banking charter long after textiles became irrelevant to its business. By 1961 it was operating as a fully commercial bank and would eventually be absorbed into the Bank of Scotland in 1971, ending over two centuries of independent note issue.
Thomas De La Rue produced this note at their London works, a routine arrangement for Scottish provincial issuers who lacked domestic printing infrastructure of comparable security. The P#162 series is not among the rarer British Linen issues; survivorship is relatively high.
