Auction: CSS108C - Chinese Banknotes and Coins
Lot: 2092
International Banking Corporation, China, obverse and reverse proof for $10, ND (1918/1905), obverse, green with brown/red/purple guilloche, reverse pine green,
note PMG states these are S408p and S420p respectively, though it is more likely an unissued proof, PMG 64 (minor ink) and 40 (stains) respectively. With the obverse proof, the colour is different to the issued S408p Hankow type as stated by PMG. But design is the same as the unlisted Harbin $10 specimen. The reverse proof is a colour trial proof of the 1905 $10. Interesting pair of this scarce issue (2)
1905-18年美商花旗銀行正反面樣票拾圓一組兩枚,綠色,背面松綠色,注:PMG 辨認這分別為 S408p 和 S420p,但更可能是未發行的樣票,PMG分別評64 (有微墨跡) 及 40 (有漬) 。正面樣票的顏色有別於PMG 所述的S408p 漢口版别,但設計與哈爾濱拾圓樣票相同。背面樣票是1905年拾圓的試色樣票。稀有且特別的一組
