Uruguay 1939 - Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 1000 pesos specimen Pick 41as with De La Rue CANCELLED stamp and Specimen No. 50

Uruguay 1939 - Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 1000 Pesos Specimen, De La Rue Cancel Stamp, Serie A, Specimen No. 50 (Pick 41as)

Cancellation on this specimen is effected through a restrained printer-applied method rather than mechanical perforation or large overprint. The obverse bears a small red oval stamp reading SPECIMEN DE LA RUE – CANCELLED, applied near the lower central portion of the design. No diagonal SPECIMEN overprint or perforated cancellation is present. This cancellation style reflects a controlled printer-level handling protocol, balancing permanent non-monetary invalidation with maximal preservation of the engraved artwork. Read more →

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 1 Dollar Specimen with Perforated 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' (Pick 5bs)

The defining feature of this specimen is a large dot-matrix perforation reading “SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE” applied across the face of the note. This perforation constitutes a permanent and irreversible invalidation method, distinct from inked overprints, oval control stamps, or punch cancellations used on other specimen formats. Perforated cancellation of this type was employed by De La Rue to ensure that fully authorized reference material could never be reintroduced into monetary circulation. Read more →

New Zealand 1968 1 Dollar Wilks Signature Perforated SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE Pick 163bs serial 5J000000 PCGS 66 PPQ Gem New

New Zealand 1968 - 1 Dollar Wilks Signature Perforated 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' Specimen Serial 5J000000 (Pick 163bs)

Unlike the overprint presentation type, this piece carries the legend 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' perforated across the design, with no red diagonal overprint, no De La Rue oval control stamps, and no punch-hole cancellation. Perforated specimens were retained internally by Thomas De La Rue & Company for record and archival verification rather than prepared for external distribution. Their survival rate is limited, as most were withdrawn or destroyed once production advanced into later signature periods. Read more →

New Zealand 1981 1 Dollar H.R. Hardie Signature vertical perforated SPECIMEN on both sides with horizontal red overprint, no punch holes or oval stamp, Serial AAA000000, Pick 169as, PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

New Zealand 1981 - 1 Dollar H.R. Hardie Signature Vertical Perforated Specimen Serial AAA000000 (Pick 169as)

In addition to the perforated cancellation, the note carries a red 'SPECIMEN' overprint applied horizontally across the central design, rather than the earlier diagonal cross format. Notably, this specimen lacks both the De La Rue oval control stamp and any punch-hole cancellation, further reinforcing its classification within a distinct specimen production method. The note bears Serial AAA000000, a standardized specimen serial format used for controlled distribution and archival identification. Read more →
