BURUNDI. Lot of (5). Banque de la Republique du Burundi. 20 to 1000 Francs, 1964-65. P-15 to 19. Uncirculated.
The complete set of five notes form the elusive 1966 provisional overprint series. Included are P-15 1965 20 Francs; P-16a 1965 50 Francs which has very minute foxing in the top margin; P-17a 1965 100 Francs; P-18 1964 500 Francs; and P-19 1965 1000 Francs. The overprint on the 1000 Francs note is heavily inked, and does bleed through to the back. Scarcely encountered as the full set, especially so in this Uncirculated condition level, and worthy of a premium bid.
Estimate: $5000 - $7000
