DANISH WEST INDIES. National Bank of the West Indies. 5 Francs, 1905. P-17.
This extremely important offering marks the finest we have offered for this scarce and highly desirable issuer. These notes are typically only seen in lower grades with notes of Very Fine quality or better being quite scarce. This About Uncirculated note certainly is one of perhaps just a few to have seen only trivial circulation. Exceptional detail of the BWC styling remains throughout with appeal typically only reserved for specimen notes illustrated here. Close inspections shows just a vertical fold at center and a few corner tip folds and we cannot determine when looking through the holder as to where the retouching is that PMG mentions. The finest we previously sold was a Choice Very Fine note which brought $3,525 as lot 20097 in our August 2012 ANA sale. Currently the single finest PMG has graded with the next highest being the aforementioned Choice Very Fine note. PMG About Uncirculated 50 Net. Retouched.
Estimate: $3000.00- $5000.00
