Watch List notes:

Royal Bank of Scotland, £1, 3 March 1997, serial number AGB0000004, Lord Ilay First Governor of the Royal Bank of Scotland at right, reverse, Alexander Graham Bell. This note celebrated the 150th anniversary birth in Edinburgh of Alexander Graham Bell, pioneer of the telephone. Above all else, Bell saw himself as a teacher of the deaf. It is not surprising that this was so important to him, because his own wife was deaf. In honour of this work, the note shows Mrs Bell, as well as representations of sign language and the phonetic alphabet that Bell's father had developed. It was the first banknote in the EU to carry a hologram, (PMS RB95), about uncirculated.

Estimate: £150.00 - £250.00
