Here I have a nice Graded AU58 1960-61 United Kingdom 1 Pound Note
This year note was the first year that the Queen was printed on a UK note.
I read some where that King Charles III was about to release a note with his image on a note soon.

Nice one, Dearborn! I remember that type in circulation - they were replaced in 1978 by the Isaac Newton type.

KIng Charles III notes will be released in June:

Well, the Bank of England releases the notes with the image of KCIII. Not the King

Here you can see how the King gets his set of notes:

By the way, nice £1 note

Very nice example @Dearborn. I really like the design & wanted one with the first signature too. Here's mine:
1960-61-United-Kingdom-1-Pound-Note

A part of me wants to get my 1£ graded & another part is on the fence. Anyway, now I would like to get a good example of each of the first 3 denominations (5£; 10£ & 20£) for the QEII polymer series before the KCIII versions arrive.

very nice note walk2dwater - I agree with you - I wanted the first signature one also (before the cost of getting one goes up)

Same here, I would like them all too - but after doing a search, I had a hard time in determining which ones were the 'first' ones for the higher denomination notes

They were my favorite £1 notes as nice Uncles and Aunts would send me one at Christmas tucked into a card. I pulled this A-prefix one from circulation around 1978 when these were being replaced by the smaller Newton type:

I am not quite sure what you mean. Yet, I give it a try for the polymer notes:

£5: signature Victoria Cleland, begin with prefix AA

£10: signature Victoria Cleland, begin with prefix AA; the first ones with signature of Sarah John begin with prefix DJ

£20: signature Sarah John, begin with prefix AA (there are no polymer notes with Cleland's signature)

£50: signature Sarah John, begin with prefix AA (there are no polymer notes with Cleland's signature)

Did you mean this?
