Italy Banca d'Italia 500,000 Lire 6.5.1997 Pick 118. A crisp example of this highest denomination of Italian currency before the Euro changeover. As this note was worth around 250 Euros before its expiration, most were redeemed, making extant Uncirculated examples increasingly hard to find. The back features Raffaello's fresco La Scuola di Atene, or The School of Athens. An incredible representation of money as art. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. HID08701242017
Estimate: 1000-1500 USD
