Italy Banco d'Italia 500 Lire 19.2.1947 Pick 70ds Specimen PMG Choice Very Fine 35. This large format, high denomination type began its life as a fully issued banknote, but after some time, it was withdrawn and became a Specimen. Hole punched cancellations were applied atop the serial numbers and overprints were applied to the front. Staining is mentioned for accuracy but the overall appeal is still quite good. Rare in this format. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/italy-banco-d-italia-500-lire-1921947-pick-70ds-specimen-pmg-choice-very-fine-35/a/4036-25622.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4036-04212022 HID08706262019 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
