China People's Bank of China 50 Yuan 1949 Pick 830a S/M#C282-36 PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. A remarkable issue with tranquil brown inks, highlighted by a vignette of a farmer carrying a hoe and a factory worker carrying a hammer. One of the most iconic notes of the first series, this design was said to have been adapted from an earlier 10 Yuan denomination, which also featured a farmer and worker. An eminently collectible type and increasingly desirable in the higher grades.
