BANKNOTES, CHINA Empire. Russo-Asiatic Bank. Harbin. 100-Dollars, undated (1910) (Pick S466; S/M O5). In PMG holder graded Choice AU-58 EPQ (only one example graded higher by PMG at 65 for the type), light traces of circulation around the four corners, otherwise a beautiful problem-free note showing all details of the original design.
As one of the most popular foreign bank issues in China, these Russo-Asiatic banknotes always attract extra attention due to the scarcity and dramatic history of the bank. A good partner for the 50-Dollar from the same bank in the previous lot
Estimate: $ 8,500.
