Isles of France and of Bourbon Isle de France et de Bourbon 1000 Livres 28.7.1790 Pick 23 PMG Fine 12 Net. A beautiful, well preserved example of this rare 18th-century colonial issue. This interesting 1000 Livres is one of a mere three examples registered in the PMG Population Report, revealing the limited number surviving examples. These Islands were renamed shortly after the banknote issues, taking on their present day names of Mauritius (formerly Isle de France) and Reunion (formerly Isle de Bourbon). Printed simply in the classic French style, the note was fully issued with a handwritten serial number and signatures. Backing is mentioned for accuracy. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/isles-of-france-and-of-bourbon-isle-de-france-et-de-bourbon-1000-livres-2871790-pick-23-pmg-fine-12-net/a/4039-25301.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4039-10202022 HID08706262019 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
