Ireland 1929 Ulster Bank Limited large-format watermarked security paper, Pick Unlisted, showing repeated Ulster Bank Limited watermarking across uncirculated banknote security paper associated with the Northern Ireland issue period

Ireland - Northern 1929 - Ulster Bank Limited Large-Format Watermarked Security Paper

The large format is important. The piece is substantially larger than a single note and appears comparable to multiple oversized banknote panels in scale. This gives the watermark greater documentary presence, because the bank-name pattern can be seen across a wider sheet area rather than through a small cut fragment. The paper surface appears fresh and clean, with strong watermark visibility and preserved uncirculated quality. Read more →
