SPINKS’ AUCTION OF BERMUDA’S CURRENCY NOTES … FROM THE COLLECION OF DR. THE HON. DAVID J. SAUL, J.P. dr. david Saul, former Premier and Minister of Finance of Bermuda established, over the decades, one of the most impressive collections of Bermuda currency notes known to exist. the vast majority of his notes were uncirculated and of unusual quality. included in his collection were over 30 very low serial numbers – of which the 1941 Brown five pounds (a000001) holds pride of place – he once also owned a000002! dr Saul’s collection also includes the a/1 000001 10 pound 1966 purple. Many other notes with serial numbers of 000001 and 000002 are included in this sale. the brown five pound came to dr. Saul directly from reginal tucker, the former General Manager of the Bank of Bermuda had the note in his safety deposit box from the day it arrived in Bermuda during the war – it had never moved. dr. Saul’s favourite, (four notes in all) and holds a special place in his heart, is a set of the first four notes in the first series of Bermuda notes bearing the head of queen elizabeth: the first ever 5/-, 10/-, 1 pound and 5 pound notes, all a000001. this stupendous set came to david directly from the safety deposit box of royston dodwell, an officer of the Bank of Bermuda, at that time, and former Bermudian raF ace. interest in Bermuda currency was sparked when, as the Government’s Financial Secretary in the early 70s he was called on to identify counterfeit sterling notes being returned for the “new decimal” notes: no one had taken the time to establish such a collection until that time. he instructed the Bermuda Monetary authority to build such a collection, and a few years later, he also started to build his, using the services of overseas brokers, such as the late Mel Steinberg. dr. Saul is also is a keen out-doors-man, distance runner, ScuBa diver and ocean kayaker (to ne Greenland, South Georgia island, tasmania, alaska, chile, Panama, the uS, and canada), and flyfishing. he is a Fellow of the explorers’ club in new york. dr Saul is also the former Premier, and Minister of Finance of Bermuda, and for thirty years he has been a directory of the international investment firm of Fidelity international. interest in deep ocean exploration, dr. Saul has been a directory of odyssey Marine exploration, a world famous specialist in deep sea exploration and mining. he was awarded an honory doctorate from Loughborough university last year for his “services to education, Politics, and international Business”. 3

banKnotes of bermuda - dr. the hon. david J. sauL CoLLeCtion
FOREWORD the currency of Bermuda has always been popular. it is a well defined series of beautifully engraved banknotes that perfectly capture the exotic charm of this atlantic paradise. From the classic early George v to the award winning designs of the most recent issues, Bermuda banknotes cannot fail to enhance any commonwealth collection. as you study this catalogue, it would be hard to disagree that the david J. Saul collection is without doubt the blue riband of Bermuda currency collections. the great strength of the Bermuda series is the images they carry. From the hibiscus and oleander to the Bermuda Petrel and the Whistling Frog. From the ‘Monarch’ in hamilton harbour to the naval dockyards in Sandy’s, Somerset Bridge and Flatts inlet. all are images redolent with the history of this beautiful island. recently, i was fortunate to visit david and see Bermuda first hand and i encourage all of you to add this beautiful island to you holiday destination list. in the meantime i hope collectors everywhere can add a piece (or several!) of Bermuda to their collections. this is a unique opportunity to obtain notes from the finest collection of its kind. Good Luck Barnaby A Note on References: We have used the excellent new catalogue ‘the Banknote Book’, by owen Linzmayer as our primary source when producing this catalogue, and have listed his references in addition to the usual Pick numbers. all aspen references are from the second edition of ‘a history of Bermuda and its Paper Money’.

In 1943 upon the departure of John Trimingham it was proposed to replace him with R.A. Kelly who was based in London at the time instead of the expected promotion of Gerald Young. Accordingly Kelly signed the notes for the printers Bradbury Wilkinson and the 10 shilling and the £1 were produced prior to the expected issue of currency of 1943. Sadly Kelly died before he could take up the post and the notes were scrapped. No other examples are believed extant. Excessively rare and desirable this is the Banknote Book plate note £6,000-8,000

4.3
Bidding as Principal When making a bid (whether such bids are made in person or by way of telephone bids operated by Spink, commission or online or email bids), you will be deemed to be acting as principal and will be accepting personal liability, unless it has been agreed in writing, at the time of registration, that you are acting as agent on behalf of a third party buyer acceptable to us.
4.4
Commission Bids if you give us instructions to bid on your behalf, by using the form provided in our catalogues or via our website, we shall use reasonable endeavours to do so, provided these instructions are received not later than 24 hours before the auction. if we receive commission bids on a particular Lot for identical amounts, and at auction these bids are the highest bids for the Lot, it will be sold to the person whose bid was received first. commission bids are undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale, and the conduct of the auction may be such that we are unable to bid as requested. Since this is undertaken as a free service to prospective buyers on the terms stated, we cannot accept liability for failure to make a commission bid. you should therefore always attend personally if you wish to be certain of bidding.
4.5
On-line Bidding We offer internet services as a convenience to our clients. We will not be responsible for errors or failures to execute bids placed on the internet, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by (i) a loss of internet connection by either party for whatever reason; (ii) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software and/or (iii) a breakdown or problems with your internet connection, computer or system. execution of on-line internet bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the auction and we do not accept liability for failing to execute an online internet bid or for errors or omissions in connection with this activity.
4.6
Telephone Bids if you make arrangements with us not less than 24 hours before the sale, we shall use reasonable endeavours to contact you to enable you to participate in bidding by telephone, but in no circumstances will we be liable to either the Seller or you as a result of failure to do so.
4.7
Currency Converter at some auctions, a currency converter will be operated, based on the one month forward rates of exchange quoted to us by Barclays Bank Plc or any other appropriate rate determined by us, at opening on the date of the auction. Bidding will take place in a currency determined by us, which is usually sterling for auctions held in London. the currency converter is not always reliable, and errors may occur beyond our control either in the accuracy of the Lot number displayed on the converter, or the foreign currency equivalent of sterling bids. We shall not be liable to you for any loss suffered as a result of you following the currency converter.
4.8
Video images at some auctions there will be a video screen. Mistakes may occur in its operation, and we cannot be liable to you regarding either the correspondence of the image to the Lot being sold or the quality of the image as a reproduction of the original.
4.9
Bidding Increments Bidding generally opens below the low estimate and advances in the following order although the auctioneer may vary the bidding increments during the course of the auction. the normal bidding increments are: up to £100 by £5 £100 to £300 by £10 £300 to £600 £320-£350-£380-£400 etc. £600 to £1,000 by £50 £1,000 to £3,000 by £100 £3,000 to £6,000 £3,200-£3,500-£3,800-£4,000 etc. £6,000 to £20,000 by £500 £20,000 and up auctioneer’s discretion

Spink uni (07/11) (20)

4.12 Successful Bid Subject to the auctioneer’s discretion, the striking of his hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid, provided always that such bid is higher than the reserve (where applicable), and the conclusion of a contract for sale between you and the Seller. 4.13 After Sale Arrangements if you enter into any private sale agreements for any Lot with the Seller within 60 days of the auction, we, as exclusive agents of the Seller reserve the right to charge you the applicable Buyer’s Premium in accordance with these terms and conditions, and the Seller a commission in accordance with the terms of the Seller’s agreement. 4.14 Return of Lot once your bid has been accepted for a Lot then you are liable to pay for that Lot in accordance with these terms and conditions. if there are any problems with a Lot then you must notify us within 7 days of receipt of the Lot, specifying the nature of the problem. We may then request that the Lot is returned to us for inspection. Save as set out in clause 5.13, the cancellation of the sale of any Lot and the refund of the corresponding purchase price is entirely at our sole discretion. We will not normally exercise that discretion if the Lot is not received by us in the same condition that it was in at the auction date. AFTER THE AUCTION 5.1 Buyer’s Premium in addition to the hammer Price, you must pay us the Buyer’s Premium at a rate of 20% of the final hammer Price of each Lot. 5.2 Value Added Tax other than in respect of zero-rated Lots (o) vat is chargeable on the hammer price and the Buyer’s premium of daggered (†) and (Ω) lots at the standard rate (currently 20%), and on lots marked (x) at the reduced rate (currently 5% on the hammer price and 20% on the Buyer’s premium). vat on Margin scheme lots (identified by the absence of any vat symbol next to the lot number) is payable at 20% on the Buyer’s premium only. 5.3 VAT Refunds General 5.3.1 as we remain liable to account for vat on all Lots unless they have been exported outside the eu within 3 months of the date of sale, you will generally be asked to deposit all amounts of vat invoiced. however, if a Spink nominated shipper is instructed, then any refundable vat will not be collected. in all other cases credits will be made when proof of export is provided. if you export the Lot yourself you must obtain shipping documents from the Shipping department for which a charge of £50 will be made. 5.3.2 if you export the Lot you must return the valid proof of export certificate to us within 3 months of the date of sale. if you fail to return the proof of export certificate to us within such period and you have not already accounted to us for the vat, you will be liable to us for the full amount of the vat due on such Lot and we shall be entitled to invoice you for this sum. 5.3.3 to apply for a refund of any vat paid, the proof of export certificate must be sent to our Shipping department clearly marked ‘vat refund’ within 3 months of the date of sale. no payment will be made where the total amount of vat refundable is less than £50 and Spink will charge £50 for each refund processed. VAT Refunds - Buyers from within the EU 5.3.4 vat refunds are available on the hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium of daggered (†) and investment Gold (g) Lots. you must certify that you are registered for vat in another eu country and that the Lot is to be removed from the united kingdom within 3 months of the date of sale. 5.3.5 Where an eu buyer purchases a Lot on which import vat has been charged, no refund of vat is available from us. it may be possible to apply directly for a refund on form vat 65 to hM revenue & customs overeseas repayment Section, Londonderry. VAT Refunds – Buyers from outside the EU 5.3.6 Where a Lot is included within the auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and evidence of export from the eu is produced within 3 months of the date of sale, the vat on Buyer’s Premium may be refunded. 5.3.7 Where the Lot is marked as a daggered (†) or investment Gold (g) Lot the vat charged on the hammer Price may be refunded where evidence of export from the eu is produced within 3 months of the date of sale. a refund of vat charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proof of business as a collectibles dealer. 5.3.8 Where the Lot is marked as an omega (Ω) Lot or an import vat (x) Lot and evidence of export from the eu is produced within 3 months of the date of sale, the vat charged on both the hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium may be refunded. Where required, we can advise you on how to export such Lots as a specific form of export evidence is required. Where we advise you on the export of the Lots, please be aware that the ultimate responsibility in respect of obtaining a valid proof of export certificate will lie with you and we will not be responsible for your failure to obtain such certificate.

We shall apply the proceeds in discharge of the amount outstanding to us or the Spink Group, and pay any balance to you; 5.10.1.4 where several amounts are owed by you to the Spink Group in respect of different transactions, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not you so direct; 5.10.1.5 to reject at any future auction any bids made by you or on your behalf or obtain a deposit from you before accepting any bids. 5.10.2 if you fail to make payment within thirty-five days, we shall in addition be entitled: 5.10.2.1 to cancel the sale of the Lot or any other item sold to you at the same or any other auction; 5.10.2.2 to arrange a resale of the Lot, publicly or privately, and, if this results in a lower price being obtained, claim the balance from you together with all reasonable costs including a 20% seller’s commission, expenses, damages, legal fees, commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or otherwise, incurred in connection with your failure to make payment; or 5.10.2.3 take any other appropriate action as we deem fit. 5.11 Failure to collect Where purchases are not collected within seven days after the sale, whether or not payment has been made, you will be required to pay a storage charge of £2 per item per day plus any additional handling cost that may apply. you will not be entitled to collect the Lot until all outstanding charges are met, together with payment of all other amounts due to us. 5.12 Export Licence 5.12.1 if required we can, at our discretion, advise you on the detailed provisions of the export licensing regulations.

We shall not however be obliged to refund any amounts if either (a) the catalogue description or saleroom notice at the auction date corresponded to the generally accepted opinion of scholars or experts at that time, or fairly indicated that there was a conflict of opinions, or (b) it can be demonstrated that the Lot is a Forgery only by means of either a scientific process not generally accepted for use until after publication of the catalogue or a process which at the date of the auction was unreasonably expensive or impracticable or likely to have caused damage to the Lot. Furthermore, you should note that this refund can be obtained only if the following conditions are met: 5.13.1.1 you must notify us in writing, within seven days of the receipt of the Lot(s), that in your view the Lot concerned is a Forgery; 5.13.1.2 you must then return the item to us within fourteen days from receipt of the Lot(s), in the same condition as at the auction date; and

Shipments of more than 2kg or volumetric measurement of more than 2kg have to be sent by courier. certain countries may incur extra charge when courier services are required by our insurance policy. For lots sent by courier please contact auctionteam@spink.com for calculation of any further relevant cost in addition to the above charges. Value Added Tax (VAT) Charging of (VAT) at Auction the information shown on this page sets out the way in which Spink intends to account for vat. i.
Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme 1. Where possible, we will offer Lots for sale under the auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. Such Lots can be identified by the absence of any vat symbol next to the Lot number in the catalogue and will not be subject to vat on the hammer Price. 2. Where Lots are sold using the auctioneers’ Margin Scheme to vat–registered businesses, the vat included within the Buyers’ Premium is not recoverable as input tax. upon request on sale day, we will issue invoices that show vat separately on both the hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium. this will enable vat-registered businesses to recover the vat charged as input tax, subject to the normal rules for recovering input tax.
ii.
Zero-Rated Lots Limited categories of goods, such as books, are zero-rated (o) for vat in the united kingdom. Such Lots are offered under the auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. in these circumstances no vat will be added to the Buyer’s premium.
iii.
Daggered Lots Lots which are daggered (†) in the catalogue are subject to vat at 20% on both the hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium.
iv.
Starred and Omega Lots Lots which are marked (x) in the catalogue are subject to vat at 5% on the hammer price plus 20% on the Buyer’s premium. Lots which bear the omega symbol (Ω) are subject to vat at 20% on the hammer Price and on the Buyer’s Premium. Such Lots bear vat because the Lot is liable for vat at this rate on importation into the eu.
v.
Investment Gold Lots Lots marked (g) in the catalogue are exempt from vat on the hammer Price and are subject to vat at 20% on the Buyer’s Premium. a refund of vat charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proof of business as a collectibles dealer.
vi.
Imported Lots Lots which are marked (x) and Lots which bear the omega symbol (Ω) have vat charged on the hammer Price and Buyers’ Premium because they have been imported into the united kingdom from outside the eu. in these cases we have used a temporary importation procedure, which in effect means that the point of importation is deferred until the Lot has been sold. at this point the Buyer is treated as the importer and is liable to pay the import vat due. We will collect the vat from you and pay it to hM customs and excise on your behalf.
