(t) CHINA--FOREIGN BANKS. Russo-Asiatic Bank. 2 Gold Fen, ND (1913-17). P-S480. S/M#O5-51. PMG Choice Fine 15.
Kuld'sha, Chunguchak & Kashgar Branch, serial number 057799. Printed by BWC. At the time of cataloging, PMG has graded just nine 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 especially without any negative comments from PMG.
1913-17年華俄道勝銀行金貳分。
甯遠喀什城分局,編號057799。BWC 印製。圖錄編撰之時PMG僅評九張,庫平金貳分面值難得一見。正面兩側各有一龍,遙遙相對,以藍色印刷,中央亦見一龍。左右設計墨色繽紛,在該評分中品相頗具魅力。正面以俄文印刷,反面則是中文與阿拉伯文。珍罕,全無PMG負面評價,值得高價競逐。 (t) On September 1, 2019, the United States enacted new tariffs on collector's items of Chinese origin, including bullion and numismatic coins and banknotes.
