“The Lady Lavery Series”
A committee was appointed to advise on the design of the first series
of Legal Tender notes and chose the principal feature for them, an
“emblematic female figure”, Lady Hazel Lavery. It was decided that the
reverse side of each note should carry a portrayal of one of the river
masks whose sculptures adorn the façade of the Dublin Custom House. The
watermark on all notes is the head of Erin.
