These single cashier design, collectible and short-lived notes are always keenly sought after and an interesting fact about this issue is that opposing to regular convention of each prefix made of 1 million notes, instead each prefix for these notes was only going up to 960,000. According to the Bank a total of 649 million of the series B Helmeted Britannia notes were issued however this is not necessarily the same as the number printed or that all of them went into circulation.

Estimate: 90-140 GBP
