Hong Kong Chartered Bank of India, Australia & China 5 Dollars 18.8.1930 Pick 53 KNB32 PMG Very Fine 30. This rarely seen, hand-signed type is especially desirable in Very Fine grade. All details and colors are bright and fresh on this Waterlow & Sons engraving. During this interwar era, Hong Kong was a vibrant trading port but was nowhere near as populated as it is today, leading all early types to be scarce today. We have only offered this date once previously, which should underscore its rarity, especially in such a collectible grade.
