Hong Kong Mercantile Bank of India, Ltd. 5 Dollars ND (1912-41) Pick 235cts KNB11SS Color Trial Specimen PMG About Uncirculated 53. This long running, iconic design is extremely popular due to its design elements and rarity. Brownish purple hues replace green on this initial denomination. Although undated, the signature of Fredrick Clark McDonald indicates that this Specimen was prepared around the year 1912, making this the first variety for the type. Hole punched cancellations are in lieu of serial number and signatures. Typical mount remnants on the margins are mentioned for accuracy. A very scarce Waterlow & Sons Color Trial Specimen, this is the first we have offered. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/hong-kong-mercantile-bank-of-india-ltd-5-dollars-nd-1912-41-pick-235cts-knb11ss-color-trial-specimen-pmg-about/a/4034-26397.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4034-12112021 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
