Description

Iconic Zanzibar 10 Rupees of 1908

Zanzibar Zanzibar Government 10 Rupees 1.1.1908 Pick 3 PMG Very Fine 20 Net.
Paper currency of the Zanzibar Government remains among the most desirable of all World Paper Money. This 10 Rupees is the third denomination of the series, issued between 1908 and December 31st, 1935. On New Years Day of 1936, Zanzibar notes were replaced by East African Currency Board notes, and gradually these beautiful notes were withdrawn from circulation. All denominations have the same design elements and different sizes and colors. PMG mentions restoration on this otherwise pleasant example, which features completely visible details on the front and a comparatively unblemished reverse. To date, PMG has graded only ten examples of this denomination, across the three known dates: 1908, 1916, and 1928. Very rare, incredibly popular, and seldom offered.
