Watch List notes:

Alle Welt: France: 50 Francs 1870 P. 51b, Fayette A45. A very searched note, early issue of the "Banque de France" with watermark "Head of Mercury" and handwritten date at upper left and lower right which makes it the rarest known type of this kind of note. The note is still in great shape, with only minor border tears, a small center fold hole, slight staining on back, a tiny missing part at upper right corner but without any repairs or larger damages. A true witness of time and great addition to any collection. Conditoin: F-.
