Description

Uncommon Denomination In Outstanding Grade

India Government of India, Calcutta 2 Rupees, 8 Annas ND (1917) Pick 2 Jhunjhunwalla-Razack 3.3.1A-G PMG Choice Uncirculated 64.
India's curious and seldom seen 2 Rupees 8 Annas note is a middle denomination in the Government of India's series of notes. This type was possibly issued to bridge the gap between small denominations, or to give the public a new note to use as silver was hoarded during World War I. Whatever the case may be, this note was issued across major cities, which are identified by the prefix letter. This Calcutta issue is exemplary in originality, as it was saved in Uncirculated condition. A small hole and evenly toned paper are mentioned for accuracy. One of the most famous of all Indian paper notes and one missing from many high grade collections.

頂尖評分之罕見面額

1917年印度政府2盧比8安拿，加爾各答地名。PMG Choice Uncirculated 64。
耐人尋味的2盧比8安拿是印度政府所發行的中面額珍鈔，其緣起可能是為了彌補大小面額間的差距，或在一戰期間因白銀被貯藏起來而需向大眾供應新鈔而發行。但無論如何，此鈔在所有大城市均有發行，亦可從字軌判斷發行城市。這張加爾各答鈔票呈現出堪稱典範的原裝外觀，惟帶有小洞，紙質均勻發黃。此為名氣最盛的印度紙鈔之一，是不少高評分集藏欠缺之珍品。
