Tibet, [2 notes] 5 Tam, 1912, serial numbers 1738, 36213,

Tibetan paper money was introduced under the authority of the 13th Dalai Lama during a pivotal moment in Tibet's history. The notes reflect the country's transition as it moved to re-establish its own administration following 1912. Printed using traditional woodblock techniques, the notes embody the artistry and symbolism of Tibetan culture. They offer collectors not only a numismatic treasure, but also a tangible link to Tibet's political and cultural transformation in the early 20th century.
