| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed entirely in blue and presents a detailed intaglio vignette of the Ulster Bank's head office building in Belfast, a grand classical-style structure with a broad flight of steps, colonnaded facade, and a statuary figure atop the pediment. The architectural vignette is framed within a rectangular border, surrounded by fine wavy-line guilloche work radiating outward to the note's edges. Ornate scrollwork flourishes flank the lower corners of the central frame. |

| Opmerkingen |
Ulster Bank Limited occupied an unusual position among the Irish commercial note-issuers: incorporated in Belfast but operating across both jurisdictions of the island, it maintained the legal right to issue sterling-denominated notes throughout this period. The Charles Skipper & East connection — the same London firm that handled currency work for South African and colonial issuers — brought a level of engraving quality that exceeded what a regional bank might otherwise commission.
The 1939–1956 dating range spans the entirety of the Second World War, during which Northern Ireland saw significant military and industrial activity, putting unusual pressure on small-denomination note circulation. Notes from the early part of the series show heavier wear patterns for this reason.
