STRAITS SETTLEMENTS. Government of the Straits Settlements. 100 Dollars, 1916. P-5. PMG Choice Fine 15 Net. Splits, Stained.
Extremely Scarce. B/1 Block. Serial Number 26601. This is the first time we have handled this coveted note in our lengthy history. The 1916 date is the most desirable for the type. This piece is showing a small profile vignette of KGV at top center with prowling tiger below, both in a colorful red. Two "100" counters on each of the bottom sides. Rough around the edges, but nearly impossible to find in better condition. All pertinent detail of this exquisite piece remains. PMG mentions Splits, and Stained in the comments section. PMG Choice Fine 15 Net. Splits, Stained.
From the Yuri Solovey Collection.
Estimate: $30000.00- $50000.00
