Bahamas Bahamas Government 20 Dollars 1965 Pick 23a PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. A scarce mid-denomination bearing the Sands-Higgs signature combination. At the time of issue, the $20 denomination exceeded the face value of the previous highest denomination, which was £5. Queen Elizabeth II on the face wearing the King George IV's Sate Diadem, and beach scene on the back. This example is tied with four others as the top graded on the PMG Population Report. A type present on many wantlists, as its high face value prevented the vast majority of these notes from being saved, let alone in Gem Uncirculated condition. A classic British Commonwealth rarity in this elite designation. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/bahamas-bahamas-government-20-dollars-1965-pick-23a-pmg-gem-uncirculated-66-epq/a/4015-28220.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4015 HID08706262019 © 2019 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
