A R1 note. R87,840. Yes, really! 👀🇿🇦

A remarkable result from our Signature Auction this past weekend.

This 1967 South African R1 banknote, featuring the distinctive grapes watermark, achieved a hammer price of R73,200, bringing the total including the 20% buyer’s premium to R87,840.

Graded PMG 67 Superb Gem Uncirculated, with only TWO examples recorded in this grade, this is a remarkable piece of South African numismatic history.

A perfect example of how rarity, condition and collector demand can turn an ordinary denomination into something extraordinary.

Because in the world of numismatics, what looks ordinary can be anything but 🤯.

The card declined. The cash came out. But apparently, this wasn’t ordinary spending money… 😂

When the notes are too good to break up, there’s only one place they belong.

🍇 IT STARTED WITH AN R1. NOW EVERYONE HAS AN OPINION. 🥊

From the grapes watermark to the Afrikaans R1, Slade and Landon’s debate has drawn John into the showdown, with the Clegg 10 Shillings and 1892 Double Shaft entering the conversation!

But it all comes back to one place…

🏆 SIGNATURE AUCTION 30. Extraordinary pieces. Fascinating history. And collectibles worth arguing about.

The debate is on. Which side are YOU on? 👀🔥

Paper vs silver. Notes vs coins. Which R1 takes the crown?

The gloves are off, and both contenders are heading to SIGNATURE AUCTION 30. 🏆

💥 THE BATTLE OF THE R1s. Which side are you on?

🍇 GRAPES. ON A BANKNOTE🍷

This is your sign to uncork something extraordinary. 🍷🔥
