1918 One Pound Cerutty/Collins R21 Very Good
This is an intact and affordable example of the Treasury series £1 note.
The "Treasury" series of Australian banknotes was on issue between 1913 and around 1923 - these notes are referred to as "Treasury" notes by collectors because they were the first Australian banknotes issued for the Australian Commonwealth Treasury.
There were a number of changes made to the way Australia's currency notes were printed in the decade between 1913 and 1923 - not only did the signatories change from Collins and Allen to Cerutty and Collins, but the format of the serial numbers added to each of the notes changed several times also.
When it comes to the Treasury series £1 notes, collectors have 5 different varieties of note to choose from.
There are 4 varieties of Collins Allen £1 note and just the one variety of Cerutty Collins note.
As the Note Issue Department had settled on a serial number format that could be used for the medium term without any problems by late 1916, no minor changes were necessary to the Cerutty Collins £1 notes between 1918 and 1923.
As the Australian economy recovered following the end of World War I, more currency notes were printed than was necessary during the war.
All of this means that the Cerutty Collins £1 note is the most affordable Treasury series note available to collectors.
This note has better eye appeal than a lot of other notes in this price range - there is jus tone minor tear evident in the right hand edge.
It has no holes or serious stains that so many other Very Good notes have.
The edges remain intact right the way around, there is some paper thinning on the centre and quarter folds on the back.
As the images here show, the colours remain bold and strong - this note remains a presentable and affordable example of the Treasury series £1 note.
