Three crisp, sealed, and uncirculated bricks (1,000 pieces each) of five, ten, and fifty pence notes of the British Armed Forces. The sixth series, together with the 1 and 5 pound notes of the second series, were used in Berlin up to December 31, 1979, when they were finally withdrawn. On February 14, 1991, The Ministry of Defence auctioned off their stock of 17 million uncirculated vouchers from the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th series to a consortium of dealers. The 6th series has the inscription '6th Series' written on top of the banknote value number on one of the two faces. It was released because the United Kingdom had changed over to decimal currency. There were three denominations - five pence, ten pence, and fifty pence. The denominations were expressed in 'New Pence' to distinguish it from the pre-decimal pence. Two banknote printers were employed to print these notes. They were Bradbury Wilkinson and Company, and Thomas de la Rue and Company.
