Portugal 50 Mil Réis Specimen, ND (1917), Pick 110s, PMG 35

Portugal 1917 - Banco de Portugal 50 Mil Réis Specimen (Pick 110s)

The 50 Mil Réis embodied the young Republic’s drive to project prestige after the fall of the monarchy. Its monumental allegory-Commerce and Industry flanking the national arms-was conceived as wartime inflation eroded confidence in paper currency. Surviving specimens are exceedingly rare; the PMG census records only two graded examples of Pick 110s worldwide. Read more →

Portugal 1799 Real Erario 20000 reis apólice issued in Lisboa, serial number 37723 in red, blind embossed seal on the face, no red overprint present, with multiple official ink seals on the reverse

Portugal 1799 - Real Erario 20000 Reis Apólice, Original Issue, No Overprint, Lisboa No. 37723

This example belongs to the original issue phase of Portuguese treasury apólices and predates the period commonly associated with the War of the Brothers. It is not a later emergency, provisional, or conflict-era emission, but rather a product of the established pre-war fiscal system operating under stable royal administration. This distinction is structurally important, as later conflict-period instruments frequently exhibit different validation practices, heavier fiscal markings, and systematic overprinting linked to wartime controls.

New Zealand 1907–1926 Bank of New Zealand £20 Blue audit-range serial-prefix specimen with dual control numbers, Bradbury Wilkinson & Co., PMG 55 AU, Pop 1/1, R9 Extremely Rare

New Zealand 1907–1926 - Bank of New Zealand £20 Blue Serial-Prefix Audit Specimen (Pick S194s)

A unique high-denomination Bradbury Wilkinson audit-range specimen and the rarest surviving document from New Zealand’s private-banknote era, the £20 Blue (Pick S194s) represents the apex of BNZ’s color-coded denomination hierarchy. This specimen is not a generic zero-serial example: it carries dual live serials (No. 061001 and No. 066000), identifying it as an internal audit-range piece used by Bradbury Wilkinson for plate alignment, tint calibration, and numbering verification during the official approval process.
