This attractive one pound had solid value right throughout WWII.
King George VI came to the throne in 1936, and was Australia's head of state during our sesquicentennial (150th anniversary of settlement); World War II and the Korean War. King George VI died on February 6th, 1952.
Sheehan & McFarlane was the first signature combination seen on Australia's notes at the time of the coronation of KGVI - World War II began late in 1939 and Sheehan's tenure ended shortly after that, which meant that the number of notes issued with these signatures was quite low relative to later combinations in the KGVI series.
