| 正面描述 | The bank title 'THE NATIONAL BANK LIMITED' is inscribed across the top within a ruled border, with 'Unlimited for Note Issue' beneath in script lettering. At upper left, the Irish arms vignette appears alongside a central allegorical vignette of Hibernia seated; the denomination 'TEN' is printed in large letters at upper right and again at lower centre. An extensive list of branch offices is arranged in small text across the central field, below the manuscript promise-to-pay legend reading 'TEN POUNDS at Dublin,' dated 10th February 1920, with serial number in red at both sides and the issuing formula 'For the Directors and Company' with a manuscript signature at lower right. |

| 背面描述 | The reverse is essentially plain white paper, with only faint ghost impressions of the obverse visible through the paper stock, confirming the single-sided printing typical of this issue. |

The National Bank Limited was an Irish commercial bank operating under a British charter, and its banknotes circulated freely in Ireland before and immediately after partition. The 1920 date places this note in a particularly volatile moment — the War of Independence was at its peak, and the practical question of whose currency would function in a post-settlement Ireland had not yet been resolved. Commercial bank notes continued to circulate alongside Bank of England issues with little disruption at the counter level, even as the political ground shifted entirely beneath them.
After the Irish Free State established the Currency Commission in 1927, legacy notes like this one were gradually withdrawn. The National Bank itself survived until its 1966 merger with the Bank of Ireland.
