Australia 1939 10/- Sheehan McFarlane Banknote. $A95

A well circulated note as you can see - it is 73 years old after all!)

Even so, far better looking than the very lowest “in the bin” Very Good" grade (which in McDonald #20 is $A115, and next lowest grade, which this is more like "Fine", is $A265. Next up - VF is $625 - and that is still for a pretty worn note.)

“Fine” in banknotes is the 2nd lowest grading – see the McDonald table of it above!

Grading Banknotes has never been my big skill, but I do get quite a few turn up in estates – this one was laying flat between pages of a 1960 SG World catalogue I noticed - nearly by accident!

So priced to clear fast from estate, at WAY under even lowest possible grade, and it is a ton better than that, I think?

Great thing to tuck away, to show the kids and grandchildren of what our currency looked like before the War.

Or, add as a curio frontispiece to a KGVI Stamp Collection.

$A95 plus $2 post global

As most know - I do NO fairs or shows, have NO shop, and do NOT bother with ebay or other auctions. I buy endless bulk lots from Estates, and distress sales etc, in this massive city, and offer it here at NETT prices for fast turnover. NO "20% Buyer Fees" to add to my prices, as in auction!

And many similar mouth-watering NETT price offers are being loaded weekly onto -

All stampboard lots under $A200 are mailed Unreg’d, as reported delivery problems are near nil. If Reg’d is required, STATE that on order form – cost is extra $A4 local, and minimum $A13 extra foreign. 'All risk' Insurance is always possible if required, at $A2 per $100 covered - again it must be specified on order form.

As per stampboard convention - this lot is offered exclusively to board members - and on no other sales venue.

For members who make a BANK TRANSFER payment you WILL generally get your goods faster, as it saves me some hassle - but you MUST email me the confirmation number etc - many "forget"!
