Bermuda Bermuda Government 1 Shilling 1.3.1939 Pick 6s Specimen PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. The Bermuda Legislature authorized the printing of 1 Shilling and 2/6 Pence notes to be issued during World War II, as coinage was typically hoarded. However, that was not the case in Bermuda, and since these notes were not necessary, they were not issued. Impressive originality is seen on this Cancelled Specimen. At the time of cataloging, a mere two examples have been graded by PMG. This is the first we have offered and it is one of the rarest designs printed for Bermuda. Missing from nearly all collections and worthy of serious consideration. Ex David Saul collection lot 34, sold in 2013 for £14,500.
