CHINA--EMPIRE. Ming Dynasty. 1 Kuan, ND (1368-1399). P-AA10. CMC Extremely Fine 40.
(S/M#T36-20) One of the most iconic banknotes available and often referred to as the "Earliest Collectible Paper Money." We have handled several of these impressive large format notes and this offering is certainly well above the average in terms of condition. The body is quite thick and the impression bold, especially at center. Still visible vermilion overprints and with just a tear at the middle left border to report, which is also mentioned by CMC in the comments section of the holder. A great opportunity. CMC Extremely Fine 40.

Estimate: $5000.00- $7000.00
