Palestine Note in NYINC 2020
We are pleased to present an extensive selection of
banknotes in our January 2020 New York International Numismatic Convention sale,
which will be held at the Grand Hyatt in New York City. One incredible note is
found in lot 30368, a brilliant Palestine Pick 9a 10 Pound Banknote featuring a
key date of 1927.
The note is certified by PMG as Very Fine 25, free of any
comments from PMG. Extremely close inspection reveals a nearly microscopic
pinhole, and some edge wear typical for the grade. This is without question one
of the finest examples of the type known in fully issued form, as many of the
finer PMG examples have been cancelled and are thus not in their original
issued state.
The note features bright blue inks, and deep red and black
impressions. It displays great overall detail and pleasing centering. A
vignette of the Crusaders Tower at Ramleh is at left on the front with the Citadel
of Jerusalem at center on the reverse side in the holder. The note will be an
incredible addition to even the most advanced of general world paper
collections. It will open at $52,500.
For additional information regarding this lot, or to consign
to a future sale, please contact Aris@StacksBowers.Com.
