Proof banknotes such as these were produced prior to the full production run of banknotes in order to ensure the suitable quality of the design for large scale production and use.
The National Bank of Australasia was a bank based in Melbourne. It was established in 1858, and in 1982 merged with the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney to form National Australia Bank.
Pre Federation notes are an area of collecting which I believe is underrated and often undervalued. It is a sector which offers a great deal of research opportunity which is both rewarding and engaging. Owning a piece of Australian monetary history such as this is something I am privileged and proud to be able to offer.
