Watch List notes:

Israel - 10 Pounds 1948 - Anglo Palestine - PCGS 35 - Prefix C

The Anglo Palestine Banknote Series is the first official series of the State of Israel. The banknotes were issued by the Bank of Anglo-Palestine on paper stamped with colored dots as a means of preventing counterfeiting. Due to the short time left until


the declaration of the state, the banknotes were printed on engravings with decorations


that were generally prepared for printing Chinese banknotes. Since the banknotes were


printed before the establishment of the state, the names of the state and its currency were


not yet known, and therefore the name of the State of Israel does not appear on the banknotes at all. The English Pound was chosen as the currency type.

Observe: security drawings; the words "Ten Palestine Pounds" and "Anglo-Palestine Bank Ltd." In Hebrew and English.


Reverse: security drawings; The words "Ten Palestine Pounds" and "Bank of Anglo-Palestine Ltd." in Arabic and English.
