CHINA--EMPIRE. Imperial Bank of China. 1 Tael, 14.11.1898. P-A40a.
(S/M#C293-2b) A rare Tael issue note which is one of a scant few we have handled for the catalog number in recent memory. Seen with a deep blue frame and orange under-printing with red protectors. Strong overprints in both the serial numbers and signature are observed along with light touches of circulation. Back seen with black circular seal at upper center and similar styling as face. A note which would certainly enhance any comprehensive collection of Chinese banknotes. PMG About Uncirculated 55 Net. Foreign Substance, Staining.
Estimate: $5000.00- $7000.00
