| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is printed in blue-green intaglio and centres on an oval vignette to the left portraying Lady Hazel Lavery as Kathleen Ní Houlihan, shown in three-quarter view with a harp at her side against a landscape ground. Bilingual legends in English and Irish identify the Currency Commission Irish Free State and the Legal Tender nature of the note, with the denomination '£10' in a central panel flanked by guilloche underprint work and corner numeral '10' tablets. Two manuscript facsimile signatures — those of the Chairman of the Currency Commission and the Secretary of the Department of Finance — appear across the centre, with the serial number in red and the date in the lower right. |

The Currency Commission was established by the Currency Act of 1927, which also pegged the new Irish pound one-for-one with sterling — a parity it would maintain until 1979. This note entered circulation under that arrangement, meaning it functioned in practice as an interchangeable equivalent to the Bank of England pound, a political compromise that suited the Free State government's cautious economic thinking in the post-independence years.
Brennan was the Currency Commission's first chairman; McElligott was Secretary of the Department of Finance. Both signatures appearing together dates this to a narrow window before institutional reorganisation shifted signing responsibilities.
