This note is one that will certainly be a highlight of these world banknote section as it is a type seldom seen in any state of preservation.

Back seen with ornate bordering design with text within and large central vignette of tree leaves with tree at center and island in background. The overall quality is of stunning proportion with perfectly original paper throughout and centering and margins that help confirm the lofty grade assigned by PMG.
