MACAU. Banco Nacional Ultramarino. 100 Patacas, 1945. P-33s. Specimen. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ.
Printed by W&S. Red penned specimen No. "41" in the top right corner. This higher denomination note is the first we have offered in quite some time, and this specimen variety is most likely missing from even the most advanced collections. Seen printed in a deep purple ink with multicolored under-printing. Common design among all denominations although seen here in a larger format. Deeply embossed inks are quickly observed looking through the holder and nice margins add to the appeal. Five small punch cancels are noted. Specimen overprint diagonally at center on the face. An highly important opportunity. PMG Pop 3/1 Finer.
Estimate: $3000 - $5000
