Overview
A 'Numismatic Set' of five uncirculated Reserve Bank of New Zealand 'Series 7' banknotes. The notes make a set in that they all have the same serial number (AA15001706 ).
A nation's banknotes not only have value in economic terms as cash, they are also embody in their design and iconograph universally recognised and respected emblems of national identity.
These notes display, as do their predecessors, depictions of eminent national figures, indigenous animals and plants which brand the notes as relating explicitly to New Zealand.
