Japan Ministry of Finance 5 Yen ND (1872) Pick 6 JNDA 11-4 PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 Net. An impressive example of this rarest denomination type. Interestingly, these vertical format notes were printed in Frankfurt, German States. The 5 Yen seems to be the rarest denomination of the series, which is seldom offered in any grade. A handsome series of notes that must be fully understood to be appreciated. In fact, there are similar looking banknotes series issued by the Japanese in their colonies: Korea, Taiwan, China, Kiau Chau, and Russia. This example, however, is a genuine example from the first series of 1872, and at the time of cataloging, remains the finest graded example in the PMG Population Report. Foreign substance is noted. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/japan-ministry-of-finance-5-yen-nd-1872-pick-6-jnda-11-4-pmg-choice-uncirculated-64-net/a/4026-28232.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4026 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
