Condition: I would grade this banknote as a nice about very fine with all the details being well preserved. The note has several vertical and horizontal folds. It also some general light soiling but no staining. The note retains quite a bit of its original stiffness and crispiness. The colors are vivid and bright. The corners are intact with minimum rounding. The edges are intact and show minimum wear. The note has no tears or splits The only thing we see is one pinhole in the center of the top margin, where someone must have had the note pinned to a board sometime in the past. Other than that the note is problem free and has honest original wear and is in an original circulated condition. The note would make a great addition to your collection of Australian banknotes.
