East Africa East African Currency Board, Mombasa 1000 Shillings = 50 Pounds 15.12.1921 Pick 18 PMG About Uncirculated 53. East Africa currency notes are perennially popular, with the higher denomination types continuing to elude even the most dedicated collectors. This excellent 50 Pounds was only briefly handled and previously mounted. Its two digit serial number adds desirability. Notes featuring high denomination such as this were most used for interbank transactions and were not generally seen in circulation due to their incredible spending power. At the time of cataloging, a mere five examples of this issued type have been graded in the PMG Population Report. An important Commonwealth offering and especially desirable with such a small serial number. A key note featuring King George V. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/east-africa-east-african-currency-board-mombasa-1000-shillings-50-pounds-15121921-pick-18-pmg-about-uncircula/a/4039-25143.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4039-10202022 HID08706262019 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
