South Africa South African Reserve Bank 100 Pounds 29.1.1952 Pick 100a PMG Very Fine 30. English over Afrikaans in the text orientation of this highest denomination rarity from South Africa. All design elements are on display, with minor margin tears being mentioned for accuracy. However, any degree of circulation is secondary to this note being the second in an impressive consecutive pair offered in today's sale. It is worth checking the previous lot, as that is the first serial number in the pair, but do take note to compare the orientation of text. For this denomination, the text orientation English / Afrikaans and Afrikaans / English changed with every note printed. So this is a true consecutive pair featuring both text variations. Quite interesting.
