Israel 1 Lira Pound Bank Leumi Banknote 1952 #P-20a F+

Description:

A series of Bank Leumi LeIsrael banknotes was issued following the transformation of Anglo – Palestine Bank to Bank Leumi LeIsrael in May 1951.

The new banknotes are very similar to the Anglo-Palestine series banknotes due to the need to print them quickly and on the other hand

The bank has enough time to redesign them. The new currency was called Israeli Lira.

Obverse:

The words ‘one Israeli Lira’ and ‘Bank Leumi LeIsrael Ltd.’ in Hebrew.

Reverse:

The words ‘one Israeli Lira’ and ‘Leumi Bank of Israel Ltd.’ in Arabic and English.
