The last ever English £1 Banknote - Chief Cashier D H F Somerset

For over 200 years, the £1 note passed from hand to hand – a trusted symbol of British pride, craftsmanship and everyday life.

The final version of this note was issued by the Bank of England between 1981 and 1984, before being withdrawn from circulation in 1988.

Now, you have the rare opportunity to own a preserved piece of that history – the very last £1 banknote ever issued by the Bank of England.

Why it deserves a spot in your collection:

  • Last ever £1 bank note ever issued
  • Obverse features the signature of Chief Cashier H.F. Somerset alongside a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Since 1870, the Chief Cashier has been the sole signatory on every newly issued banknote.
  • Reverse showcases Isaac Newton, genius of the Scientific Revolution and one of the most famous figures to ever hold the role of Master of the Mint.
  • Mint Uncirculated quality – preserved in the same crisp condition as the day it left the Bank of England.

With only 114 available, this historic banknote is in extremely limited supply. Once sold out, the opportunity to add this iconic piece of British numismatic heritage to your collection will be gone forever.
