China Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China - Tientsin $50 ND (1929) Pick S210r Remainder
A high denomination example from a coveted bank and a rare place of issuance. All features are well preserved on this early example prepared on light banknote security paper. Unlike the HSBC, which used different vignettes and designs for different banks, the Chartered Bank simply changed the places of issues and sometimes the color. A difficult example to acquire as an issued note. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64.
