A timeless classic of Australia’s paper currency, this 1985 $50 Johnston/Fraser banknote stands out with its Gothic-style serial numbers, adding an ornate and traditional character to an already distinguished design.
Issued at a pivotal time in Australia’s currency history, the note features the portraits of Sir Howard Walter Florey, Nobel Prize-winning pathologist, and Sir Ian Clunies Ross, the eminent CSIRO scientist. Their legacies in medicine and science are beautifully honoured through rich engraving and print detail.
Meticulously preserved in Uncirculated condition, this banknote not only embodies craftsmanship but also captures the charm of its classic Gothic serial typography. A superb choice for collectors seeking heritage, rarity, and refined design.
