TEN POUNDS Coombs Watt Signatures, V/18 - 986136 - 1949 series. Yet another unmarked collectable Tenner, from the irrepressible Mr PINK.
And another. A selected popular 1949 Ten Pound pre-decimal note. Nice colour, no rips, no stains, no pin holes. A good full note flattened from album retention with a few scuffs and flattened from a minor centre fold. A great collectors ten pound note.
These are getting harder than ever to locate without pinholes and tears. It is a great tenner for the collector on a medium budget. It has the right dimensions, it is not trimmed or tampered with. Please appreciate no pin holes, marks stains and scuffs or v tears in the edge.
Grading is a subjective skill, please make your assessment from the hi resolution pictures (not scan). My view it is an honest VF plus points stretching to a gEF. This year the CV for this type of thing is VF $1000 and in EF it is 2500. Getting harder and harder to get like this with few abrasions. Sold on the scan.
A little foxing and no dirt and stains - flattened a little from being in an album. Bit of an edge fold, hard to see unless you stand upside down and look hard.
I am advised now is the time to invest in bank notes, rare paintings, particularly gold and due to interest rate reductions and the variables in shares & debentures. Mine and accountant's opinion, only. The picture (not scans) tell the description.
A great note for the collector. Good luck collectors of Australian pre-decimal bank notes, a rewarding & profitable pastime. Mr PINK is the irrepressible independent. Please support poor old MR PINK (Very famous). Please make an offer, save the auction uncertainty. Mr PINK always listens and knocks back no body. The guarantee is that is not a copy (Mr PINK doesn't like those at all). Otherwise if you think it is, send it back within 7 days for a refund of the fees, less say $300. All up front and fair. Note there will be a review with the photographs to ensure it is received in the condition it is sent. This is a good collector's note. Scarce now without marks. Private listing Australia only postage.
BELOW IS ONE GRADING GUIDE THAT MAY BE HELPFUL TO SOME:
Uncirculated (UNC) An Uncirculated note can have centreing imperfections, soft corners, little to no embossing, smudges, paper pinches, wrinkles. There can even be a corner tip fold, as long as it does not enter into the design of the note. However, the paper must Not show signs of circulation.
About Uncirculated(aUNC) This grade reflects a note that reveals only very slight signs of circulation. Sometimes magnification is needed to discern the wear. There can be several corner folds or even a single fold in the note's design. This note is still very crisp, and without these folds or very slight wear, the note would hit CU.
Extremely Fine(EF) This note may show evidence of noticeable wear, but still has considerable crispness. There may be several folds; however, the details are still readily discernable and somewhat sharp. A predominate portion of the note is original and circulation is not so noticeably strong as to distract from the overall design.
Very Fine (VF) Approximately 50 to 75% of the original detail survives in this grade. However, crispness has now suffered as well as colour. This note is showing evidence of being noticeably circulated. There are obvious folds, even perhaps throughout the note, both vertically and horizontally. Most noticeably is the lost of crispness (which still minutally remains) in the note.
Fine (F) This note still reflects detail but has lost some of its distinctiveness, especially in the design. The note is obviously Well circulated, there may be virtually no crispness remaining. The edges may be rough; however, there are no tears in the note. The wear will show a past of many folds.
Very Good & Good (VG) (G) A note in Very Good will show significant wear, distorting the details of the note. The note may be soiled, stained, rough edges, etc… A note in Good condition reflects deterioration in basically all facets. Lower Grades do exist, but aren't reasonably gradeable.
