Auction: CSS112C - WORLD, MACAU AND HONG KONG COINS AND BANKNOTES
Lot: 2208

The HongKong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, pair of progressive proofs $10 cut from a unique sheet, ND (1959-83), green and pink, Ceres top left, coat of arms bottom left, reverse green, angel playing a trumpet above the old HSBC building, printed by Bradbury, Wilkinson & Co. Limited,
(Pick 183 for type), both PMG 66EPQ. Note that Bradbury Wilkinson are not known to produce remainders and these notes were cut from 'pre-final production' proofs sheets that were created for final approval from the printer and HSBC. Hence the remainder should be a proof. Exceedingly rare, a must-have for any serious collector of vintage Hong Kong banknotes. (2)
