Auction: CSS96A - WORLD, MACAU AND HONG KONG COINS AND BANKNOTES
Lot: 157

Government of Sarawak, $100, 1 July 1929, serial number F/1 00,507, purple, Charles Vyner Brooke at centre,
(Pick 19), PMG 20 Very Fine, stains. One of the great rarities of South East Banknotes, with this being one of the best condition example known. In theory, 10,000 notes were printed for the $100, but in reality a tiny number were actually used for any transactions and out of that small group, nearly all were either redeemed or destroyed during Japanese Occupation. Currently, less then a handful of examples are known. This is the only example on PMG Census. Sure to be the crown jewel of any South East Asia collection. Importand and not to be missed


1929年沙撈越100元,編號 F/1 00,507,PMG20,有漬, 東南亞紙鈔史上首屈一指的珍罕品,也是至今品相最好的一枚,記錄之中, 發行量是10,000枚,但實際只有少量用於交易和大部分已被贖回或銷毀,至今在拍賣會出現過少於5枚,PMG評級紀錄唯一一枚,定能成為各藏集之亮點,勿失良機!
