The design stayed in use for almost 50 years, issued by the Central Bank of Ireland. This note, dated 8 July 1971, is signed by T. K. Whitaker as Governor and C. H. Murray of the Department of Finance (P-64c). It was issued shortly after Ireland changed to decimal currency in February 1971, and the Series A pound was replaced by the Series B design in the later 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🎨 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lady Lavery as Kathleen Ni Houlihan, leaning on an Irish harp, with the bilingual titles \"The Central Bank of Ireland \/ Banc Ceannais na hÉireann\" and \"Legal Tender Note \/ Nóta Dlí-Thairgthe\", dated 8 July 1971.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack:\u003c\/strong\u003e the carved head of a river god from the Custom House in Dublin, between two decorative rosettes in green on a pale yellow ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🔍 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumismatic Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 151 × 84 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard circulation banknote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Irish pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ireland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIssuing Authority:\u003c\/strong\u003e Central Bank of Ireland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 July 1971\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e T.
