Welcome to Smalls Auctions Sale 251. A pivotal item in this Sale is the Bank of New South Wales 'Specimen' Five Shilling which was considered for issue in New Zealand in 1915. They were never released and this rare survivor in PCGS 64 Choice Uncirculated condition is the actual plate note recorded in the Pick Catalogue of World Paper Money. It is thought to be one of only a couple that have survived and is an extraordinary rarity in the New Zealand banknote series. One for the specialist collector. The Sale begins with some affordable loose gemstones suitable for transitioning into jewellery, exotic collectables, historical medals, coins banknotes and stamps. The Sale also includes some Government reports concerning early Colonial Australia covering topics as diverse as coins and gold exports, aboriginal protections, museum reports and a Census of the New South Wales population in 1846, just 58 years after the Colony was established. This report especially lays out the growth of early Colonial Australia and makes intriguing reading. We hope you find something to pique your own individual collector interests. Smalls Auctions
