Hong Kong Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corporation 500 Dollars 1.7.1930 Pick 177b KNB67b PMG Choice Very Fine 35. As one of Hong Kong's most desirable banknotes, interest levels are always high when this type presents itself at the auction block. This denomination was the highest series issued in Hong Kong until the $1000 was issued in the 1970s. Only two dates and two prefixes are seen on this design, which was replaced in 1935 by a design that circulated for almost 40 years. The fountain pen manuscript signatures remain bold, and the paper and colors remain in good quality. A repaired split is mentioned on this otherwise splendid rarity. Not to be missed. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/hong-kong-hongkong-and-shanghai-banking-corporation-500-dollars-171930-pick-177b-knb67b-pmg-choice-very-fine-35/a/4023-28131.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4023 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
