新西兰拍卖中罕见的怀特岛邮件专题

Share:

1928年12月14日从华卡里/怀特岛寄往剑桥的信封正在拍卖中,预计售价约为650美元。该信封之所以独一无二,是因为其邮戳来自怀特岛,因为岛上的邮局直到1927年至1930年才开始运营,因此来自那里的信件非常罕见。该邮局在20世纪30年代的大萧条期间由于其支持的硫磺开采变得无利可图而被迫关闭。

这个信封是定于下周在惠灵顿举行的更大规模拍卖会的一部分,其中包括新西兰一些最重要的硬币拍卖会。这些拍卖包括价值170万美元的硬币和邮票,预计将使该年度的总销售额达到创纪录的300万美元。最近任命的Mowbray Collectables董事总经理大卫·高尔特表示,出售的稀有邮票几乎从未见过。

待售物品中有一张1925年的十二先令和六便士的邮票,用于缴纳印花税,上面印有维多利亚女王,估计售价为7.5万美元。1949年为纪念查尔斯国王的祖父乔治六世取消访问新西兰而发行的三便士邮票预计售价为65,000美元。

最高的硬币估计为18,000美元,是1935年以来一套六枚新西兰硬币,其中包括稀有的怀唐伊皇冠硬币。最有价值的纸币是1934年的50英镑储备银行纸币,上面还有塔玛蒂·瓦卡·内内,估计价值2万美元。

其他物品包括印在媒体上并有两个头像的便士,以及两枚将来自不同国家的头像设计与新西兰设计相结合的 “骡子” 硬币。还有八枚来自1860年代新西兰战争的勋章和八个纪念十字架,这些十字架是颁发给在第二次世界大战及以后阵亡的新西兰士兵家属的。这些物品有力地提醒人们那些在海外服役的人所做的牺牲,尤其是在四月澳新军团纪念日临近之际。
