The note above is a one pound note (£) from the national bank of Scotland. The national bank was founded in 1825 in Edinburgh, Scotland and was a commercial bank until 1918 when Lloyds bank took them over. They continued to use the name until 1959. After a few takeovers it eventually became part of the Royal bank of Scotland, which still operates today.
This is the second £1 note from this bank but this is in a much better condition and was issued in 1958, one year earlier than my previous one. A wee thank you to my friend Gillian who gave me this beautiful note. You can see more notes from Scotland HERE
