Description

Extremely Rare 1951 10,000 Yuan

CHINA--PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC. People's Bank of China. 10,000 Yuan, 1951. P-858a. PCGS GSG Choice Extremely Fine 45 Details. Minor Restoration, Eraser Cleaning.

This piece is seen with the "Camel Caravan" design which is also the notes nickname. Originally, the note was issued for Xinjiang Province, and did not experience mass production. Most of the time this design is seen is either on replicas, specimens, or forgeries. This example shows excellent detail, and appears to be well preserved. PCGS BG mentions Minor Restoration, and Eraser Cleaning in the comments section, but comments like that on a note of this caliber are not concerning. We anticipate spirited bidding.

PCGS GSG Choice Extremely Fine 45 Details. Minor Restoration, Eraser Cleaning.

Estimate: $25000.00- $30000.00

極罕一版幣壹萬圓

1951年第一版人民幣壹萬圓。

本拍品所呈現的"駝隊"圖景,亦成為藏家間指代這款紙幣的愛稱。此紙鈔原定於新彊發行,未曾批量付印,市面所見多有修補,或為樣張或偽鈔。本拍品細節非常出眾,保存完好。PCGS BG雖標示少許修補痕跡及橡皮擦痕,但瑕不掩瑜。經歷時間的洗禮後尚有如斯品相,實在難見,我們預期拍賣場將會上演一番激烈競投。
