Serial Number 2 Ceylon Central Bank of Ceylon 100 Rupees 3.6.1952 Pick 53s Specimen PMG About Uncirculated 50. Ceylonese banknotes featuring Queen Elizabeth II are as popular as ever, and this offering is especially interesting. This Specimen appears to have begun its life as an issued banknote, featuring the first prefix for the date and serial number 00002. After it was printed, it was overprinted and turned into a Specimen and mounted, as was typical for Specimens from this era. There are no perforated cancellations; just two red overprints on the front side. Mount remnants and stains are mentioned. Interesting and rare. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/serial-number-2-ceylon-central-bank-of-ceylon-100-rupees-361952-pick-53s-specimen-pmg-about-uncirculated-50/a/4036-25401.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4036-04212022 HID08706262019 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
