Ten stunning uncirculated bank notes in bank fresh condition. Magnificent colour and razor sharp edges.

The picture displays 11 notes but the final note in the run ending 72 was sold in a private sale, so only 10 notes total.

The larger runs from this final year of production are really getting difficult to find as more and more of them get broken up into smaller runs to sell quickly.

This run here is pristine and guaranteed to be a winner in any portfolio. It is the first large run we have offered in 4 years with the previous ones having sold within days of listing.

Given that they are the last of the paper notes in this denomination ever issued they have become very highly sought after.

The end of an era dating back to 1969.

Obverse: Sir Joseph Banks, 1st Baronet, GCB, PRS (13 February 1743 – 19 June 1820) was a British naturalist, botanist and patron of the natural sciences. He took part in Captain James Cook’s first great voyage (1768–1771). Banks is credited with the introduction to the Western world of eucalyptus, acacia, mimosa, and the genus named after him, Banksia. Approximately 80 species of plants bear Banks’s name. Banks was also the leading founder of the African Association, a British organization dedicated to the exploration of Africa, and a member of the Society of Dilettanti, which helped to establish the Royal Academy.
