Exceptional 1881 50 Kroner - Rare in Any Grade
DENMARK. National Bank. 50 Kroner, 1881. PMG Very Fine 30.
Pick-A82. Sieg-89. Bruun-78. Even circulation, but with fresh paper, lovely pastel blue color, and an attractive appearance. While fairly basic in design, upon close inspection the border offers an intricate engraving that is quite attractive. The only example of this type in the PMG population report as of the time of cataloging.
With the introduction of the Danish Kroner banknote issuance became more standardized again in Denmark, although there are a number of rare types denominated in Kroner. This is one of those, which was issued in just four years, with this showing the final date of issue for the type.
From the L.E. Bruun Collection.
Ex: Countship of Brahesminde Collection (Private Sale - 1922).
Estimate: 20000 - 30000
