| 正面铭文 | THE GOVERNMENT OF ST. LUCIA These Notes are Legal Tender for the payment of any amount. TEN SHILLINGS Castries, 1st. October 1920 |
| 背面描述 | Printed in purple. At centre, within a circular guilloche pattern, appears a vignette derived from the island's colonial badge: the twin volcanic peaks of Gros Piton and Petit Piton rise above a harbour foreground in which four sailing vessels ride at anchor; the sun is shown rising to the right. The Royal Ensign flies from the left pier and the Red Ensign from the right pier. The colony's Latin motto appears below the central vignette. |

| 备注 |
Saint Lucia's 1920 government currency issues — this 10 Shillings among them — were produced under the Colonial Treasury system, at a point when the island had no formal banking authority of its own capable of issuing notes. Thomas De La Rue handled the printing, as they did for the vast majority of British Caribbean colonial issues of this period.
Pick 2 is genuinely scarce. The small population of Saint Lucia meant issue quantities were low, and surviving examples in any condition are rarely encountered at auction.
