China Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation $5 1.3.1923 Pick S353s Specimen
A wonderfully preserved example from this well-known foreign bank, with all colors and intaglio features well preserved. This is from the penultimate HSBC issue for Shanghai, as economic turmoil and an unstable currency in the following years led to the divestment of most foreign banks. Notes as bright and well preserved notes such as this one are uncommon today, and such a popular design will be heavily contested. PMG Choice Uncirculated 63 Net, repaired.
