ARGENTINA. Banco Nacional. 20 Decimos, ND (1826-27). P-S344. PMG Very Fine 30.
(BN-11c) Due to the war with Brazil, a coin shortage occurred so the Treasury Department decided to issue 10 and 20 Decimos notes with two designs in different colors. The rationale for the different colors is not known. These notes were very unpopular with most people refusing to accept them so the notes were withdrawn and destroyed within a few months of being issued. All are very scarce to rare. Stained, small holes mentioned in the comments section. PMG Very Fine 30.
From the Robert J. Bauman Collection.
Estimate: $700.00- $1200.00
