Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 2000 Reales Vellón Serie E Issued Note No. 00286 (Pick S455)

Issued examples of Serie E are seldom encountered today. Survival rates are best established through direct observation of extant notes rather than catalogue estimates. Only a very small number of fully executed, circulation-authorised 2000 reales vellón notes are documented, and serial number 00286 represents one of these scarce survivors. Read more →

Issued Banco de Zaragoza 2000 reales vellón consecutive pair, Serie E Nos. 00031–00032, Pick S455, Zaragoza 14 May 1857, cancellation punches

Spain 1857 - Banco de Zaragoza 2000 Reales Vellón Serie E Issued Consecutive Pair No. 00031–00032 (Pick S455)

Both notes are fully executed with manuscript signatures of the Comisario Regio, Director, Interventor, and Cajero, and each displays the characteristic circular cancellation punch applied upon redemption. Despite circulation wear consistent with their function, the engraved detail remains clear, retaining the distinctive mid-nineteenth-century Madrid-school engraving style employed for Zaragoza’s 1857 series.

French colonial treasury second of exchange dated 22 August 1871 for 2,000 francs, payable in New Caledonia, with printed text and manuscript treasury endorsements

New Caledonia 1871 - French Treasury Second of Exchange for 2,000 Francs (Service des Colonies)

The face presents a formal printed layout typical of French treasury paper of the period, combining engraved text with manuscript completion. It explicitly identifies the instrument as the second of exchange, issued alongside a corresponding first, each holding independent legal standing. This duplication was a deliberate safeguard against loss, delay, or interception during long-distance transmission between France and overseas territories. Read more →
