WORLD PAPER MONEY

CHINA--REPUBLIC. Bank of China. $1, 1.6.1912. P-25l.

(S/M#C294-30l) Manchuria branch. This popular series shows with portrait vignette of Emperor Huang-ti at left and always receives spirited bidding from collectors. This example is the finest we have handled for the catalog number and exhibits still strong detail and color throughout. Rare offered in such a state and bound to create considerable interest. Seen with overprint "N.B. Payable in subsidiary (silver) coins at par i.e. ten 10-cent coins to the dollar," at lower margin of back. Currently the only note for the catalog number PMG has graded.PMG Very Fine 20

Estimate: $3000
