CHINA--FOREIGN BANKS. Russo-Asiatic Bank. 5 Dollars, ND (1914-17).

Rare Shanghai 5 Dollar Uniface Specimen CHINA--FOREIGN BANKS. Russo-Asiatic Bank. 5 Dollars, ND (1914-17). P-S486s2. S/M#O5-81. Back Specimen. PMG About Uncirculated 55. Shanghai. Phenomenally rare uniface reverse specimen for the third series of the Shanghai issue. A quick look at the PMG census shows one fully printed specimen, one uniface reverse specimen (this one) and one uniface obverse colour trial. A total of four issued notes have also been graded. This emphasises the rarity of this note across all the different types and presents an incredible opportunity for the high-end collector to acquire this design. PMG Comments: "Tears." The third series was commissioned after the Russo-Chinese Bank merged with France's Banque du Nord in 1910 and was renamed Russo-Asiatic Bank. The design of the notes remained unchanged from the second series, except for the Bank name and the denomination, which was renamed as Local Currency Dollars. Estimate: $2,000 - $3,000. 罕見上海地名伍圓單面樣票 1914-17年俄華道勝銀行伍圓。背面樣票。 上海地名。上海地名發行第三版單面背面樣票，極其罕見。查閱PMG評級紀錄可見，迄今僅一張正式樣票、一張單面背面樣票（即此枚）及一張單面正面色樣試印樣票獲評，另有四張流通票亦經評級。此足證本品於各類別中皆屬鳳毛麟角，是資深藏家購藏此設計的絕佳良機。PMG備註"裂痕"。第三版是在華俄道勝銀行於1910年與法國北方銀行合併並更名為俄亞銀行後所委印。其設計除銀行名稱更動外，其餘皆與第二版保持一致，面額單位亦改稱為圓。

Estimate:£756.74
