Belgian Congo Banque du Congo Belge 5 Francs 4.12.1924 Pick 8d. The issuing office of Stanleyville (today Kisangani in the DR Congo) is seen on this note which retains all of its bright colors. As this was one of the lower denominations, it was undoubtedly subject to heavy circulation. An example such as this with so much eye appeal is difficult to find today. Small tear, minor paper pull are noted. PMG Choice Extremely Fine 45. HID08701242017
Estimate: 1000-1500 USD
