Great Britain ND (1961-63) P-372s PMG Gem UNC 66 EPQ 5 Pounds (Specimen)
A fantastic and rare specimen of this iconic issue. This is the second variation of the design, with the denomination on the reverse in outline only (it was shaded on the first version of this design). Specimens of this issue are very seldom offered and are tightly held, and the quantity of specimens printed is small to begin with. The offering of British specimens is infrequent at best, and a survey of publicly available auction records show a scant number of pieces appearing at public auction in recent memory. The present lot represents an opportunity for the advanced specialist that should not be considered lightly. Strong eye-appeal and originality are noted on this example, which is the sole finest for this specimen in the PMG population report.
