| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in red and blue, dominated by a large central guilloche medallion in blue bearing a bold '£1' cipher overlaid with the text 'TREASURY NOTE'. The inscription 'TERRITORY OF WESTERN SAMOA' curves around the upper and lower arcs of the central roundel, while symmetrical 'POUND' cartouches in red appear at the left and right. The overall design relies on fine-line lathe-work patterns filling the entire field with no pictorial vignette. |

Western Samoa was still under New Zealand administration when this note circulated — the UN Trusteeship formally ended only in 1962. The Treasury of Western Samoa issuing its own pound-denominated notes during this period was a function of local administrative arrangements rather than full monetary independence, with the New Zealand pound serving as the underlying reference currency.
Bradbury Wilkinson produced notes for dozens of colonial and trust territories during this period. Their security printing was reliable but not lavish — a straightforward watermark was typical security provision for lower-circulation Pacific territories where sophisticated counterfeiting was not a serious operational concern.
