Hong Kong Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corp. 5 Dollars 1.3.1898 Pick 139 KNB29 PMG Choice Very Fine 35 Net. An iconic design from this famed issuer, examples of this type are very rarely encountered and desirable in any grade. A small, 19th century population, and a pair of issuers hint that print totals were small. Additionally, the sands of time prevented all but a scant few examples from surviving to be enjoyed today. This example is well preserved with bold colors. Any 19th century Hong Kong banknote is a prize, and this example is no exception. Interesting, historic, and rare, this piece would make a great addition to any collection. A restoration is mentioned by the third party grading company. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/hong-kong-hongkong-and-shanghai-banking-corp-5-dollars-131898-pick-139-knb29-pmg-choice-very-fine-35-net/a/4030-26314.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4030 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
