Auction: CSS112C - WORLD, MACAU AND HONG KONG COINS AND BANKNOTES
Lot: 2228

HongKong & Shanghai Banking Corporation, $50, 1.1.1901, serial number 99450, purple, arms at centre, one handsigned signature, printed signature Jackson, reverse red,
(Pick 152), PMG 20NET, severed & reattached, repaired. A discovery note that was previously unknown in issued format. As there are no $50 issued for the later 'bridge' series, making this the only $50 for this early design. As well as being a single year type, giving this a rarity level that rivals the highest denomination $500. Important for HK banknote collectors.
