Description

Bahamas Central Bank 20 Dollars 1974 Pick 39b PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. Featuring the signature of William C. Allen, this note was issued in or around 1980, and was replaced by a completely redesigned type in 1984. This denomination has become challenging to find in any sort of collectible grade, as its short life span and high face value prevented most from being saved for posterity. This example displays pack fresh original qualities, such a uncirculated paper, vivid colors, and clean, wide margins. At the time of cataloging, the PMG Population Report has graded only 14 examples in Uncirculated grades, which is surprisingly low for a 1980s issued banknote.
