Cayman Islands Currency Board 5 dollars perforated specimen with SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE cancellation, serial prefix A/1 with all-zero serial number, upper right handwritten notation 467/1–A2, lower margin inscription C.T.

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 5 Dollars Specimen with Perforated 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' (Pick 6s, 467/1–A2)

This example must be catalogued separately from its parallel A1 counterpart because its archival control notation differs. In the upper right margin the printer job notation reads “467/1–A2.” Along the lower margin the inscription reads “C.T. Wood 12.10.89 see notes on order form.” Within printer-archive material, such suffix differences are not minor: they represent distinct internal states, filing or review designations, and handling history. In a field where the engraved design is intentionally stable, these notations become the primary fingerprints of the object. Read more →

Cayman Islands Currency Board 5 dollars specimen with perforated SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE cancellation, serial prefix A/1 with all-zero serial, upper right handwritten printer notation 467/1–A1, lower margin inscription C.T.

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 5 Dollars Specimen with Perforated 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' (Pick 6s, 467/1–A1)

What makes this example individually identifiable, and therefore non-interchangeable with parallel perforated specimens, is its archival handwriting. In the upper right margin the printer job notation reads “467/1–A1.” Along the lower margin the inscription reads “C.T. Wood 12.10.89 see notes on order form.” These are not decorative marks but internal De La Rue workflow identifiers, documenting filing and review status within the printer’s archival control system.

Cayman Islands Currency Board 25 dollars specimen dated 1974, Pick 8s, red diagonal SPECIMEN overprint with two red De La Rue NO VALUE control stamps, specimen number 025, serial prefix A/1 with all-zero serial number, single punch cancellation in signature area, engraved signature of V. G. Johnson as Chairman, turtle watermark, PMG 66 EPQ holder

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 25 Dollars Specimen with Red Overprint & Oval Stamp (Pick 8s)

The specimen format follows the established De La Rue layered control protocol typical of the 1974 Cayman series. A bold diagonal SPECIMEN overprint in red spans the face, accompanied by two red oval control stamps reading “SPECIMEN / DE LA RUE & CO LTD / NO VALUE.” A single punch cancellation is present in the signature area, physically voiding the note while leaving all engraved elements fully legible. No printer annotations are present on this example. Read more →

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 100 Dollars Specimen with Perforated 'SPECIMEN OF NO VALUE' (Pick 11s, 801/A1)
