S.W.Fores No. 10, for Self, Fearnought & Hardblow, 1 Penny, 4 June 1818, promising to pay ‘the Emperor Napoleon or Bearer, one penny, when British Valour shall have been wholly subsided & when the French Army shall have become masters of the British Islands’, signed by George Lather’em and Bob Trimmer, with a vignette showing a map of the United Kingdom, labelled ‘Britannia, The Pride of the Sea, I’faith they are tight little Islands’, good extremely fine £100-£150 --- Another patriotic note, promising to pay Napoleon if he successfully invades. Originally printed at least a decade earlier, by 1818 it was a doubly safe bet, as Napoleon had been firmly defeated in 1815.
S.W.Fores No. 3, for Self, Leinster, Ulster, Munster & Connaught, 2 Pence, 1 January 1819, promising to pay ‘Rory O’Bogg Esqr or Bearer, when the Union of the Kingdoms shall have produced a union of Civil & Religious principles’, signed by Pat Potatoe and Dermot O’Wisky, with a vignette displaying a map of Ireland, about extremely fine £100-£150 --- This note is probably a comment on the ‘Act of Union 1801’, in which The United Kingdom and The Kingdom of Ireland were merged into one nation. While the news itself was slightly out of date by the time this reprint was created in 1819, the message that it might be difficult to truly unite such disparate ‘civil and religious principles’ remains relevant even to this day!

A Skit Note by an unknown printer for Self, Leinster, Ulster, Munster & Connaught, 2 Pence, 1 January 1803, promising to pay ‘Rory O’Bogg Esqr or Bearer, when the Union of the Kingdoms shall have produced a union of Civil & Religious principles’, signed by Pat Potatoe and Dermot O’Wisky, with a vignette displaying a map of Ireland, mounting traces, fine and a scarce original printing for this design £100-£150 --- This note is probably a comment on the ‘Act of Union 1801’, in which The United Kingdom and The Kingdom of Ireland were merged into one nation. It seems to suggest that whatever the official political situation, the union may be somewhat more difficult to manage!
