Banknote Jersey 1 Pound - Elizabeth II - Battle of Jersey - ND (1976-1988) - PB Series

The 1 Jersey pound banknote, issued between 1976 and 1988, features distinctive characteristics on both sides.

The obverse of the banknote is dominated by a blue color on a multicolored background. It features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II positioned on the right. In the center, the Jersey coat of arms is highlighted. The inscriptions in the Latin alphabet include the text "The STATES of JERSEY", followed by "PROMISE TO PAY THE BEARER One pound ON DEMAND". The face value "£1" is also inscribed.

The reverse of the banknote depicts a scene from the Battle of Jersey, a significant historical event for the island. The watermark embedded in the paper represents a Jersey cow head, an iconic breed of cattle from the island.

The dimensions of the banknote are 135 mm in length and 67 mm in width. This banknote belongs to the PB series of Jersey banknotes. The absence of information on the specific issuing institution and the personality associated other than Queen Elizabeth II suggests that the issue was under the authority of the States of Jersey, the island's governmental body.
