German East Africa Deutsch-Ostafrikanische Bank 500 Rupien 2.9.1912 Pick 5 PMG Very Fine 30 Net. A wonderful example of the highest denomination issued for German East Africa, this note features the portrait of Kaiser Wilhelm II. Though all notes were designed and printed by Giesecke & Devrient, the 500 Rupien note has the distinction of having a different portrait and layout. This note was issued for a few short years, before Emergency issues were printed during World War I and the colony was subsequently ceded after Germany's defeat in the war. Repaired is mentioned by PMG. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/german-east-africa-deutsch-ostafrikanische-bank-500-rupien-291912-pick-5-pmg-very-fine-30-net/a/4033-28235.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4033-10232021 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
