    Yeah, sorry I forgot to quote that in the last post.

    Hagar, I'm looking at the older notes on Wiki. Is the same woman on all of them?

    Was that the same woman who was in the watermark on the later notes?

    Who is she?

    I posted a picture though.

    I'm not old enough to remember the ones form the 60s


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    Correct with Lady Lavery.

    @ DesF The same woman for all notes, The same Lady Lavery was also used for the watermarks.

    Although I remember seeing a note from about 1928 I think with a ploughman and horse on it.
