Description

Sole PMG Graded 5 Taels Remainder

China Asiatic Banking Corporation, Shanghai 5 Taels ND (ca. 1800) Pick S117r Remainder PMG Choice Uncirculated 63.
Asiatic Banking Corporation notes for China are most likely only seen in prototype or remainder format, as it is unlikely that issued banknotes were ever signed into service and issued. This bank operated in China for, at most, four years, from 1862 or 1864 until 1866, at which time its assets were liquidated. This remainder offers a glimpse into what a banknote from this issuer for a branch office in Shanghai could have been. A classic 19th-century design. At the time of cataloging, this is the first and only example graded by PMG. Extremely rare and missing from nearly all relevant collections.

精美的伍兩庫存票

約1800年上海利彰銀行伍兩庫存票，上海地名。PMG Choice Uncirculated 63。
利彰銀行之中國紙鈔常見於原型或庫存票樣式，皆因其鈔票不太可能獲得簽署並投入使用與發行。這家中國最多只經營了四年，從1862年或1864年到1866年，其資產在此期間被清算。此庫存票讓我們有幸一窺該發行商的鈔票本來的面貌及來自十九世紀的經典設計。截至編目時，這是PMG絕無僅有的一例，幾乎所有相關收藏中均不可尋。可遇不可求。
