| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central vignette at upper centre shows two allegorical female figures, one seated and one standing, set against a pastoral landscape background, printed in orange-brown intaglio. The denomination '10/-' appears in numeral panels at upper left and right, with 'NEW ZEALAND' in vertical letterpress on both side borders. A guilloche underprint fills the central text area, which carries the promise-to-pay inscription and a manuscript-style date line; serial number panels reading 'A000000' flank the centre, and a blue 'SPECIMEN' oval stamp is applied diagonally across the face. A solid rectangular panel at lower centre bears 'TEN SHILLINGS' in bold lettering, with 'Countersigned' and 'for the Bank of Australasia' flanking it, above the 'B. MANAGER' signature line. |

The Bank of Australasia was a British-chartered trading bank operating across Australia and New Zealand, not an Australian central institution — its notes circulated privately alongside those of rival trading banks until the Commonwealth Bank progressively squeezed out private note issue through the 1910 Australian Notes Act and subsequent legislative pressure. By 1932 the bank was operating well past the practical end of private note issuance in Australia, which had been effectively prohibited for circulation since 1910; notes of this period were transitional instruments more likely used in New Zealand branches, where the regulatory framework differed.
De La Rue's production records for the Bank of Australasia series are among the better-documented in their archive, but individual print runs for the 1930s issues were small.
