The front of the banknote features a holographic foil stripe that showcases the image of ‘Dr. Flora Murray’ beneath the pediment of the Mound, alongside an adjoining thistle. A portrayal of Sir Walter Scott and the iconic Bank of Scotland building in Edinburgh add a touch of grandeur. The Spark® denomination numeral “100” contributes to the note’s visual appeal. Flipping the note, the back presents a poignant depiction of Dr. Flora Murray, commemorating her legacy. Female stretcher bearers and a soldier outside Covent Garden hospital evoke the spirit of sacrifice and care.
Security measures are strategically implemented, including a simulated security thread bearing the demetalized phrase “ONE HUNDRED.” Crafted by De La Rue in London, this note exemplifies precision in security printing. Although a watermark is absent, the design incorporates advanced features to prevent counterfeiting.
