Identification note: Exact Pick number and precise print year not visible; printer and 1971–1990 issue span inferred from type; dimensions not measured from photos. | Design matches the Bank of England Series D “Duke of Wellington” £5 (QEII obverse; Wellington portrait and battle scene reverse; blue-gray). The visible D.H.F. Somerset Chief Cashier signature places it in the 1980–1988 Somerset-signature subtype of this type, which SCWPM commonly lists as P-377b. Serial format with two-letter prefix (e.g., DW18…) is consistent with this era. What remains unverified: the exact SCWPM suffix assignment across editions and any minor subtype distinctions tied to specific prefixes/print batches; precise print year is not shown. Therefore Somerset subtype is certain, but the exact suffix is given as estimated. Not Page (pre-1980) nor Gill (post-1988).
