George Malcolm Gill was one of the shortest serving Chief Cashiers of the twentieth century. He came into office in 1988 and left to join the Bank for International Settlements in 1991. During this three year period, two different £5 notes were issued with Gill’s signature. His Pictorial £5 notes were the last in the series and his Historical £5 notes were the first of the new design series.

We now offer crisp examples of the Pictorial £5 notes issued with Gill’s signature (B353) issued for just 2 years in crisp uncirculated.

The Bank of England issued the £10 note with Charles Darwin on the back in November 2000 while Merlyn Lowther was Chief Cashier. The first notes which rolled off the presses had an error in the Copyright panel with an extra ‘The’ appearing in the inscription. So many millions were printed before the bank realised its mistake and corrected the error that this is now regarded as a separate variety. We can offer Crisp Uncirculated versions of the Corrected Lowther Darwin £10. (B390) They are distinguished from the previous issue by the removal of the extra word ‘The’ in the copyright legend. These paper £10 notes, disappeared from circulation are now over 17 years old and increasingly difficult to find in high grade. Crisp Uncirculated Lowther Corrected £10 note.
