About this banknote
The Government of Gibraltar issued the 1-pound banknote (Pick 20) in 1979. This series was introduced as part of Gibraltar's efforts to issue its currency, distinct from British sterling, to reflect its unique identity. These notes served as legal tender within the territory, circulating alongside British currency.
The front side of the banknote features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and the Rock of Gibraltar. The back depicts the historical Convent building, the official residence of the Governor of Gibraltar. Printed by Thomas De La Rue & Company Limited, this note showcases red and brown colors and distinctive motifs relevant to Gibraltar's heritage.
