Investing In Australian Banknotes |
Introduction
There is a strictly finite supply of Australian Banknotes. We have seen the transition to decimal currency, then the
conversion from paper to polymer banknotes. The $1 and $2 notes have ceased to be issued and have made way for
coins. Due to fire, theft or just carelessness, the limited supply of notes is also slowly reduced. These events only
enhance the value of the remaining notes, which as you know, which can never be reproduced.
Investing
For some time now there has been a steady demand for Australian Banknotes, particularly from the Superannuation
sector - especially Self Managed Funds. Rare Australian Banknotes are Federal Government approved for inclusion in
company and personal superannuation funds. According to the Australian Taxation Office collectibles and fine
art can be classified as legitimate investments. As it is widely acknowledged that the prudent investor should place
up to 20% of their discretionary funds in Tangible Assets in order to maintain a well balanced investment
portfolio, bank notes are the perfect choice.

The disclaimer used by every investment provider. Fortunately, this does not apply here.
Australian Banknotes were rated the No1 Asset class performer for the 10 year period of 1991-2001. Over that 10 year
period Australian banknotes rated higher than vintage wines, thoroughbred horses, national and international shares.
Banknotes do not attract annual taxes or maintenance fees, unlike bank interest, company and personal superannuation funds.
Privacy
Australian Banknotes are one of the few remaining investments that may be privately accumulated.
This makes them attractive to investors who do not necessarily want to let the rest of the world
know what they buy, sell or hold at any particular point in time. Sales are confidential as there
is no need to lodge any paperwork with statutory authorities.
Affordability
Australian Banknotes are still very affordable to any investor. Despite their record of consistent price
gains Australian Banknotes are still available in a wide range of investment levels. Whether you wish
to start with $500 or $10,000, there are ample opportunities to invest.
Liquidity
Australian Banknotes, due to their strong demand, are a very liquid assett. All, or part of your banknote
portfolio, may be sold at any time. There are no penalties, early exit fees or locked in investment terms.
You choose when to buy or sell, and how long you would like to hold them.
Manageable
Australian Banknotes are easily stored and transported. You have total physical control over your valuable assets.
