Barbados 1968 - Bank of Barbados 5 Dollars Prefix AA Front and Back Archival Photograph (Pick Unlisted)

This item consists of a matched pair of archival photographic prints documenting the front and back designs of a proposed 5 Dollars banknote for Barbados, dated to approximately 1968 and produced by Bradbury Wilkinson and Company Limited of New Malden, Surrey, England. The pair preserves a transitional and apparently abandoned currency concept carrying the issuer name Bank of Barbados, a title that does not correspond to the formal issuing authority ultimately adopted by the country.

Barbados 1943 Government of Barbados 100 Dollars unissued banknote design, front and back archival photographs, PMG 65 Gem Uncirculated

Barbados 1943 - Government of Barbados 100 Dollars Prefix AA Front and Back Archival Photograph Pair (Pick Unlisted)

The front design carries the formal issuer heading Government of Barbados and presents a complete engraved layout including denomination panels, ornamental framing, and portraiture of King George the Sixth. This design corresponds to the issued 1943 100 Dollars banknote cataloged as Pick 6; however, the photographic proof itself is not an issued note and is not assigned a Pick catalog number.

Barbados 1959 Government of Barbados Treasury Bill photographic proof showing early legal wording, distinct border layout, prefix letter A, and handwritten archival date 13-7-59

Barbados 1959 - Government of Barbados Treasury Bill, Photographic Proof (Early Design Stage)

The front displays the full issuer heading “Government of Barbados Treasury Bill” and a legal obligation clause stating payment “to bearer out of the General Revenue and Assets of Barbados.” This formulation is not identical to the wording used on later Treasury Bills and bearer instruments, where the obligation language is more compact and standardized. The proof also lacks later elements such as a stated place of issue, an issue number, and an approval date block, all of which appear on subsequently issued Treasury Bills.

United States 1933 - New Jersey 5 Dollars Borough of Palmyra Municipal Scrip Specimen (General Obligation)

The obverse is executed in dense brown engraved security printing by E. A. Wright Bank Note Company of Philadelphia, a major American printer of municipal and financial instruments.

The issuer is clearly identified as the Borough of Palmyra, Burlington County, New Jersey, leaving no ambiguity as to municipal responsibility.
