Germany Federal Republic 50 Deutsche Mark ND (1948) Pick 10a. A beautiful example of this prohibitively rare "special army currency" 50 Deutsche Mark note that was only "in circulation for a few days" according to the Schwan-Boling reference. It is also the first example of this rare series and denomination to grace one of our auctions. A true miracle of survival, it exhibits vibrant color and appears to have rolled off the press this morning. With an identically graded example selling for $19,550 at auction in 2015, our estimate for this pretty PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ note may well prove very conservative.
Estimate: 10000-15000 USD
