Ten Pounds Peppiatt Pre-war First Period Unthreaded White Note B242a BIRMINGHAM branch issue dated 28th February 1938 serial number 174/V 78281, an excellent and Scarce branch issue and well preserved example approaching EF with very minor signs of wear and an original Bank's stamp on reverse at upper right corner with an inked/pencilled numeral possibly for accounting purposes. These branch issues are always Rare and very sought after and this example is very desirable bearing a date just a year before the issue of notes by the Bank's Branches was discontinued in 1939. Branches other than the main London branch started issuing in 1826 and as mentioned discontinued in 1939, after which they served as just distribution centres. These white 10 Pound notes were the last of the white examples for the denomination but the last of the 10 pounds until 1964 when the denomination was re-introduced again in the form of the Series C Brown Lion & Key issues of Hollom.
One Hundred Pounds Peppiatt First Period White Note B245 Unthreaded issue dated 18th June 1938 serial number 59/O 45716 LONDON branch issue, GVF - about EF damped liquid staining otherwise very well preserved and an Exceptionally Rare high denomination genuine early Pre-war Bank of England issue. These high denomination Britannia medallion White notes were rarely seen by the public, if at all, and they were mostly used for inner bank transactions at the time. Highly sought after and rarely seen in modern days, especially in a well preserved state, these notes have a very limited number of survivors left and are a fabulous addition to any fine British collection.
