Luxembourg 1982 20 Francs specimen Pick 54As with multicolor design, horizontal SPECIMEN overprint and single punch hole, PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Uncirculated

Luxembourg 1982 - 20 Francs Specimen Unissued Series (Pick 54As)

At first glance, the note presents a color palette closely aligned with the experimental tones seen in the 1966 development phase. However, this is not a continuation of that production stage but a later, independent execution of the same visual direction. The multicolor guilloche framework, violet-dominant tonal layering, and structured portrait integration demonstrate that the earlier design language was retained and refined rather than reused directly.

Uruguay 1883 - Banco de Londres y Rio de la Plata 10 Pesos Specimen (Pick S242s)

This specimen also connects with the earlier Banco de Londres y Rio de la Plata 10 Pesos face proof preserved in this collection. Together, the two pieces document separate periods and production states within the bank's 10 Pesos history. The 1871 face proof preserves an earlier plate-approval artifact, while the 1883 Pick S242s specimen records a later completed two-sided specimen format with multicolor printing, retained counterfoil, reverse design, two-number production-control structure, and perforated SPECIMEN BW & Co LONDON cancellation.
