New Zealand 1895–1915 - Bank of New Zealand £5 Orange Specimen (Pick S192s)

This specimen carries a dual A-prefix serial system, with A000001 positioned at left and A020000 at right, reflecting Bradbury Wilkinson’s internal control numbering methodology rather than circulation sequencing. The use of two distinct serial placements allowed verification across multiple stages of production, ensuring alignment between plate, print batch, and ledger records. The A-prefix itself identifies the note as part of the earliest specimen and approval sequence, reserved for internal reference and controlled archival distribution.
