Auction 165
World Banknotes Deep Blue Borders ESSAY dated 14th August 1962 serial number 10/N 1234 signatures Bilsland for Governor & Watson for Treasurer with 3 punchhole cancels across the signatures and blue diagonally across obverse and reverse with design similar to that of Pick 106 (Calloway-Murphy BA 107a). The note with deep blue border margins and in blue and light brown with lion at centre, arms and s at left and value in wording in black panels at upper centre left and right in addition to the numerical ones to lower of the note on obverse and reverse in light brown with ship at right, arms at centre and values in words in each 4 corners. Despite the introduction of solid £5 symbols it appears that the public continued to confuse £1 and £5 notes so renewed experimentation with the colours of the £5 notes was undertaken. In 1963 it was agreed to prepare essays in blue to reflect the chosen colour of Bank of £5 notes. About UNC and an Exceptionally Scarce and seldom seen issue
