New Zealand ND 1924-1933 Bank of New South Wales ten shillings proof printed by Charles Skipper and East, perforated SPECIMEN control marking, single sided with blank reverse

New Zealand ND (1924-1933) - Bank of New South Wales Ten Shillings Proof, Perforated SPECIMEN (Pick S161s)

The proof is printed single sided in orange red intaglio with a completely blank reverse and carries the perforated control legend SPECIMEN C SKIPPER AND EAST. This marking is formed through a fine matrix of pinhole perforations applied by the printer and serves as a control device identifying non circulating material. Such perforations were not cancellations and were not applied by issuing authorities. They were internal printer controls used to distinguish proofs and reference material from production stock.

New Zealand ND 1924-1933 Bank of New South Wales ten shillings oversized proof printed by Charles Skipper and East, perforated SPECIMEN control marking, untrimmed margins, blank reverse

New Zealand ND (1924-1933) - Bank of New South Wales Ten Shillings Oversized Proof, Perforated SPECIMEN (Pick S161s)

This proof is printed single sided in orange red intaglio on an oversized sheet with wide untrimmed margins and a completely blank reverse. The enlarged format was intentional. London security printers routinely pulled proofs on oversized paper to allow inspection of ink spread, plate pressure, line integrity, and margin balance before trimming dimensions were finalized. Such sheets were retained within the printers workshop and archive and were never intended for bank distribution. Read more →

Paraguay 1856 2 Reales Tesoro Nacional Treasury Note, earliest national paper money of Paraguay, signed by Matias Reina and Santiago Ozcariz, Pick Unlisted and attributed as Miguel Pratt MC14.

Paraguay 1856 - Tesoro Nacional 2 Reales Treasury Note, Earliest National Paper Money (Pick Unlisted, Miguel Pratt MC14)

The note was printed locally in Asuncion on thin handmade paper at a time when Paraguay still lacked the industrial printing infrastructure available to larger South American economies. Its design is direct, primitive, and historically powerful: the national seal with the lion and liberty cap occupies the central field, ornamental borders frame the obligation, and the denomination appears in large numerals at each side. The reverse is blank, consistent with the earliest local production method before more developed dual-side printing and imported paper became part of later Paraguayan note production. Read more →

United States 1854 Empire City Bank 100 Dollars proof note, Collins Line steamship vignette, blank reverse with American Bank Note Company archival stamp, PMG Uncirculated 62 EPQ

United States 1854 - Empire City Bank 100 Dollars Proof (Pick NY1585G16P)

The reverse is entirely blank and bears a handstamp reading “Property of American Bank Note Company.” This institutional mark confirms that the note remained within engraving firm custody rather than entering banking channels. Such stamps were applied to proof material retained for archival reference, legal protection, or internal documentation and are distinct from later collector-applied markings. The blank reverse, combined with the proof format and cancellation punches, places this note squarely within the category of internal proof production. Read more →

Great Britain c. 1900 Thomas Cook and Son 20 Pounds Circular Note, serial No. 1163727 S, with blue and green security printing, Circular Note for Twenty Pounds title, £20 denomination, Letter of Indication payment wording, twelve-month validity notice, multiple punch cancellations, clipped lower-right corner, and blank reverse.

Great Britain c. 1900 - Thomas Cook and Son 20 Pounds Circular Note, Cancelled Unissued Note (Pick Unlisted)

The note carries a normal production serial number and no SPECIMEN overprint or other specimen designation. Its uncompleted operational fields, absence of holder or bank endorsements, and completely blank reverse indicate that it never completed the normal issue and redemption cycle. The circular punch cancellations across the lower portion and the clipped lower-right corner are deliberate invalidation features applied after the note was withdrawn from usable stock, permanently preventing further negotiation.
