Australia Paper Banknotes - $2 and $5 (2 notes)



$2 Note:

Obverse: Portrait of William Farrer (wheat breeder); sheaves of wheat motif

Signatories: Not fully legible from photos

Serial number: Not legible from available photos

Grade (our assessment): Fine (F) to Very Fine (VF)

Condition notes: Note shows clear evidence of circulation. Multiple visible fold/crease lines running through the note. Soft corners. Paper has lost original crispness. Colors remain reasonably vibrant despite wear.



$5 Note:

Obverse: Portrait of Sir Joseph Banks; Australian native flora

Signatories: Johnston / Fraser

Serial number: QEU 554493

Grade (our assessment): About Uncirculated (AU) to Uncirculated (UNC)

Condition notes: Crisp and flat with sharp corners. Bright vivid colors. No visible folds, tears, or stains. A strong example of this series.



Overall lot: Mixed condition - the $5 note is a strong piece; the $2 note shows significant circulation wear. Both are pre-polymer paper issue notes from the final paper currency series prior to Australia's switch to polymer in 1988-1996.
