PORTUGUESE INDIA. Banco Nacional Ultramarino. 100 Rupias, 1924. P-29s. PMG Uncirculated 62 Net. Previously Mounted, Small Internal Tear.
Jhun 12.19.1. A high denomination, seldom seen 100 Rupias. Bright purple and yellow hues with great embossing noted. PMG comments "Previously Mounted, Small Internal Tear." The internal tear mentioned barely reaches the border on the face and when flipped over is very far from the back design. This is a remarkable example and one of only three certified on the PMG census. This variety shows with "SPECIMEN" printed across the face of the note diagonally where the ever popular "Elephant" vignette can be seen. Partial mounting still attached on back right.
Estimate: $12500.00- $15000.00
