China People's Bank of China 5 Yuan 1949 Pick 813a S/M#C282-21 PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Textile workers are the major design theme of this rare, small denomination banknote. China experienced rapid inflation after World War II, and small denominations in banknote series became nearly valueless shortly after issue. Most of these 1949 5 Yuan have been lost or spent, and as such it is rare today, especially in such outstanding quality. This is the first variety of the design, which was printed on paper without a watermark. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/china-people-s-bank-of-china-5-yuan-1949-pick-813a-s-m-c282-21-pmg-gem-uncirculated-66-epq/a/4040-23133.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4040-12062022 HID08706262019 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
