Title: $20 note
Post by: trout on May 31, 2013, 03:01:16 PM
Is this note particularly special or did all this issue come with the words
Sir Charles Kingsford Smith Centenary on them ?

I am led to believe that the note was specially overprinted to be issued with the proof $1.   There is something special about the notes prefix of ADK but for the lifeof me I can't think of it.

ADK is the last prefix for this note.
If the mintage figures for the coin are the same as the note then there should only be 2,480 of these overprinted notes out there:yahoo:
Do you want to do a trade for a mule :grin:

I am further to believe that is the case.   These notes were only intended to be released with the coin in the folder.

Swap one for a MULE, sorry, as I already have one.............
