Welcome to Smalls Auctions Sale 189. In this sale we are offering a varied selection of affordable collectables. Of notable interest is a selection of Australian Pre-decimal Banknotes and Australian Pennies. The notes are generally very cheap low-grade space-fillers that will allow you to fill a hole in your collection until a better note at an affordable price comes along. The Australian Pennies are a different kettle of fish. Many are Choice Uncirculated or the equivalent of an MS64 grade, but they are offered at levels well under the huge premiums attached to third-party graded coins. Another interesting coin is the 1933/3 Overdate Halfpenny in Choice Uncirculated condition. Since the early 2000’s this variety has been promoted as a 1933/2 Halfpenny but if you are looking for the underlying shape of a figure ‘2’ then it doesn’t quite come up to scratch and it looks more like a ‘3’ overstruck on another ‘3’. However, it is undoubtedly a high-grade example and so if you value this variety, it is your chance to pick up one of the better-known examples. Also in the Sale is a selection of Militaria including Field Glasses (Binoculars) that the vendor assures us are fully operational. We have also included some Communist Propaganda items relating to the U.S.S.R. and China. The posters and Silk Wall-hangings from the 1980’s were souvenired from the Headquarters of the Australian Communist Party in Surry Hills, Sydney and feature the usual suspects, Lenin, Stalin and Mao Zedong. We have also included a selection of Australian Decimal Commemorative coins mostly in base metal and so at the lower end of the price scale. Overall, there is a wide choice to ponder across several collector fields. Smalls Auctions
