Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 09/16/2007 01:13 am G'day, over my lifetime, I have seen many portraits of H.M. In my opinion - The coinage heads are generally OK, within the limitations of the medium. The prints of "official portraits" - photographs or paintings - that adorn many government offices in Oz, are generally very good. Postage stamps have consistently presented H.M. particularly well. But, banknotes, from various parts of the world, usually portray H.M. as a sour, severe, scowling, sort of sovereign. By way of enormous contrast, when one sees her making a speech, or giving interviews on TV, it is obvious that she is none of those things. The 1964 Canadian portrait, above, is nearly as bad as the 1966 Oz $1. And our 1992 $5 is only a slight improvement. There are a few good portraits on Notes, but they seem to be in the monority.

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/16/2007 07:09 am Hi, Peter, The note is not a 1964, it is a 1954 issue! And scoutjim99 by the pic it looks like it has a crease in the middle, and also quite rough on the top of the bill, I would grade it FINE at about 12.00 cnd. Report this Post to the Staff
bromac Valued Member Canada 195 Posts	Posted 09/16/2007 2:12 pm I would agree with the grade. CCN trends shows a value of $8.00 Bill Report this Post to the Staff
