Beschrijving voorzijde Two intaglio vignettes of Hibernia, each seated beside an Irish harp on a pedestal inscribed 'BONA FIDE REPUBLICA STABILITAS', flank the central text field at left and right. The bank title appears in Gothic letterpress at top centre, with the promise-to-pay legend and denomination 'Ten Pounds' in copperplate script, the place name 'Dublin' in large red letterpress, and the issue date in red. A frieze of classical female busts forms a continuous guilloche border along the upper edge, while two bold guilloche panels lettered 'TEN' in white occupy the lower left and right corners. The central field lists branches of the bank in five lines of small red letterpress type, and a large cursive underprint of 'Bank of Ireland' spans the lower centre.

Opmerkingen

Bank of Ireland £10 notes of this period occupy an awkward position in Irish banking history. The bank continued issuing its own notes as a private chartered institution well into the twentieth century, but by the 1910s its currency was already circulating alongside a tangle of other Irish provincial bank issues, all technically legal but none backed by a central authority. The 1914–18 war years brought unusual demand pressure on higher denominations as hoarding increased and public confidence in smaller notes fluctuated.

Pick 79 is genuinely scarce. The £10 face value meant limited everyday circulation, and surviving examples that passed through normal commercial use are rare — most known specimens show either minimal handling or significant damage, rarely anything in between.
