Highly collectible for banknote enthusiasts and investors
he ES&A Chartered Bank £20 proof banknote, dated 18 is a scarce and historically significant example of Australia’s early banking heritage. Issued by the English, Scottish & Australian Chartered Bank, proof notes were produced in extremely limited numbers, often for approval or archival purposes, making them far rarer than circulating issues.
Graded Very Fine (VF), this note retains commendable preservation, with its intricate design details and printing quality still evident. As both a rare proof and a large denomination, it holds exceptional appeal for collectors seeking important pieces of financial and numismatic history.
This £20 proof stands as a valuable addition for serious banknote enthusiasts, investors, and those with a passion for Australia’s colonial-era banking legacy.
