St Helena, Government of St Helena, [100 notes] £10, ND (2004), consecutive serial numbers P/1 508401-508400, featuring a picturesque scene of five ships nestled in Jamestown's harbor and Queen Elizabeth II's portrait on its obverse side, and the coat of arms of the East India Company on the reverse. This highlights Saint Helena's pivotal role as a profoundly strategic waypoint for the company's maritime endeavors during the era of British colonial expansion. Furthermore, the reverse face introduces a fresh design for the denomination, previously seen on the £5 notes. A gracefully flowing ribbon shapes the £10, creating an aesthetically pleasing form. The vibrant colors of this banknote, along with the portrait of our beloved late Queen, render it visually striking
(Pick 12a, BNB 308a), uncirculated (100 notes)
