CHINA--FOREIGN BANKS. Russ-Asiatic Bank. 2 Gold Fen, 1913-17. P-S480. PMG Very Fine 20 Net. Repaired, Discoloration.

(S/M#O5-51). Kuld'sha, Chunguchak & Kashgar Branch. Printed by BWC. At the time of cataloging, PMG has graded just seven examples of this elusive 2 Gold Fen note. At left and right on the face are facing dragons in blue ink, while a dragon is found at center. Colorful ink comprises the design at left and right, offering good appeal for the assigned grade. The obverse of the note is in Russian while the reverse is in Chinese & Arabic. Scarce, and worthy of a premium bid. PMG comments "Repaired, Discoloration."

Estimate: $2500.00 - $3500.00
