VENEZUELA. Banco Venezolano de Credito 20 Bolívares, ND (1931-39). P-S247cts.
Color trial specimen printed by W&S in blue and yellow. This rare 1931 issue is one that is likely missing in even advanced collections and this bright note shows with deep slate blue inks in favor of the green inks selected for the final design. Workers picking coffee at central vignette with "20" counters flanking within guilloches. Back with cattle at center within a geometric lathe primary. A touch of circulation and seen with specimen overprints and punch cancels. A great match to the 100 Bolivares we are offering in the next lot. PMG Choice About Uncirculated 58 Net. Previously Mounted.
