Printed in tiny numbers, the 1932 £5 Riddle/Sheehan is a rarity of the highest order when found in about Uncirculated quality.
The last issue of the George V 1923-33 Gold Payable Series, and rarely set aside during the Great Depression due to the high face-value, we have seldom had the chance to offer this key type in such a superb state of preservation.
Representing huge spending power of its time, £5 was more than the average weekly wage of most during the 1930s
