PORTUGUESE INDIA. Banco Nacional Ultramarino. 50 Rupias, 1938. P-34s. Specimen. PMG Uncirculated 62.
(Jhun 12.27.1-6) Printed by TDLR. An immaculately preserved 50 Rupias Specimen in unrivaled condition. We have seen variants of this design in different color, but this is the nicest we have handled, or seen, particularly when taking into account the incredible embossing seen through the holder. PMG comments "Previously Mounted," which is typical for the type, and in this case, very negligible and only noticed at back right. Bright blue and yellow inks across the face with a superbly engraved elephant at center. TDLR Specimen Stamp at bottom right.
