Korea First National Bank of Japan 10 Yen 1902 Pick 6as K&C49.1 / DK26-1 Specimen PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. A beautiful and extremely rare Specimen, seldom seen in any degree of preservation. At the time of cataloging, there are only three examples of the Specimen for Pick 6 graded in the PMG Population Report. This is the highest denomination of the series and scarce in any grade, and in any format. Hole punched cancellations and red overprints on both sides confirm Specimen status. They depict Shibusawa no Eiichi on the front, as he was the founder of the First National Bank. These issues were created in response to a need for new currency as Japanese interests on the peninsula continued to solidify. Only a few of these types are known to have survived. The first we have offered. From the Yuri Solovey Collection of Japan and Territories
