Northern Ireland, Northern Bank Ltd. 1.10.1968 P-186s PMG Choice UNC 63 100 Pounds (Specimen)
A beautiful and very scarce specimen of the highest denomination in circulation in Northern Ireland at the time this was printed in the late 1960s. This is also the final issue of a design that had its roots way back in the 19th century. A Choice Uncirculated example that looks much better to us, and even after close inspection we can not figure out why this note graded the way it did. A beautiful large-size banknote that is perhaps best enjoyed outside of the PMG holder.
