Irish Paper Money hat geschrieben:The Consolidated Banknotes (Ploughman Notes) 1929-1941
The first issue of Consolidated Bank Notes took place on May, 6 1929.
Six denominations were issued: £1, £5, £10, £20, £50 and £100.
The designs for the notes for all the banks were almost identical, differing only in the name of the bank and the signature. The obverse design of all of the notes was of a ploughman with a team of two horses hence the popular nickname of 'ploughman notes' .
Eight banks had notes produced and allocated to them for issue:
* The National Bank
* The Bank Of Ireland
* The Northern Banking Company
* The Provincial Bank
* The Ulster Bank
* The Hibernian Bank
* The Royal Bank of Ireland
* The Munster & Leinster Bank
The ploughman £1 and £5 and £10 notes are not particularly scarce, they are readily available to collectors from either banknote dealers or from public auctions.The £5 and £10 notes from the banks with the smaller issues (Northern, Royal, Ulster and Hibernian) are scare.
Ploughman notes are very popular with collectors and notes in crisp Extremely Fine or Uncirculated condition are highly sought after and scarce. Only one £20 pound note was reported as outstanding in 1954 however I have since heard that the Bank of Ireland £20 notes are all accounted for. The higher denominations; £50 and £100; were only produced for the Bank of Ireland all of the notes of these denominations were reported as withdrawn by the banks in 1954, no £50 or £100 notes have turned up subsequently and there are probably none left in existence.

Beidesmal sieht man ein Pferd und ein Mann der pflügt. "Ploughman" heist doch auch "der Pflüger".

Central Bank and Financial Services Authority hat geschrieben:Launch of 2009 Ploughman Collector Proof Coins to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Ploughman Banknotes (06/05/2009)
The Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland, today (6 May) launched the 2009 Ploughman €10 silver proof coin and the €20 gold proof coin.
Deputy Director General of the Central Bank, Mr Brian Halpin said, ‘‘Our first 2009 proof collector coins, celebrate the 80th anniversary of the launch of the Consolidated Banknote Series, which were commonly known as the Ploughman Banknotes. The first banknote was launched by the newly-created Currency Commission 80 years ago on this date (6 May) 1929, right beside us in Foster Place. The coins feature an excellent modern adaptation of the original design of the ploughman and his horses, which appeared on each denomination of every banknote. This design of a traditional Irish ploughing scene, was originally created by the late Dermod O’Brien, and it perfectly captured the essence of Irish farming culture”.
The coins are part of the Europa Coin Programme, the theme of which this year is ‘European Cultural Heritage’ and were designed by Emmet Mullins, a native of County Wicklow. A limited edition of 15,000 silver €10 coins and 15,000 gold €20 coins will go on sale tomorrow 7 May 2009. The proof coins can be purchased individually at €36 for the silver and €55 for the gold or as a double box set for €90.
