Trials of the new Ulster Bank £5 and £10

The Ulster pound is taking a turn in a new direction with vertical notes. What will be the only sterling bank notes of upright orientation in circulation are being printed by Ulster Bank. The polymer £5 and £10 notes will enter circulation in Northern Ireland next year.  All four of Northern Ireland's banks print their own money, a tradition which dates back to the 19th century Ulster Bank, which is part of Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), has released the designs of its new notes, which will replace its paper currency. They are based on the theme "living in nature".

£5 note features Strangford Lough in County Down and Brent Geese.

£10 denomination shows Lough Erne in County Fermanagh, the Irish hare and Guelder-rose shrubs.

The bank announced last year that it would be following the Bank of England by printing plastic money. However, Ulster Bank is going a step further with the new format. Switzerland and Canada (who will introduce a vertical $10 note later in 2018), are among the few countries that have notes which are vertical in orientation.

£20 Northern Bank new date 12 May 2011 

Irish Banks have decided to not let collectors obtain banknotes from their branches, this is a blow to collectors and a short sighted policy on behalf of the Banks as any notes bought by a collector is a 100% profit and can only have been good for the Irish economy

The origins of Irish banking can be traced back to the 17th century. The two authors, Bob Blake and Jonathan Callaway have researched this area for many years.

I have updated my stock with the new catalogue numbers which can be found at the end of every description on our website having re-priced in line with the book.

The information within is both academic and current. covering every banknote issue in Ireland since the early 18th century, including related areas such as Republican Bonds, Private Banks and Tradesman Issues. The book will provide detailed listings of Banknotes, Proofs, Specimens, Trials, and Replacements right up to the Northern Ireland issues of the present day and the introduction of the euro in the Republic of Ireland.
