Description

Japan Greater Japan Imperial National Bank 20 Yen ND (1873) Pick 14p JNDA 11-10 Back Proof PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. The 1873 20 Yen is one of the rarest Japanese banknotes and this back proof is the sole graded example of this denomination in any form (issued, specimen, or proof) registered in the PMG Population Report. Printed by the Continental Banknote Company in New York, this back proof features an eye appealing large vignette of mythological warriors at center flanked by the Meiji Year 3 (1870) 20 Yen coin which represented the notes convertibility. The grading company comments that this proof is unaffected by any issues on the cardstock and the overall quality of this rare high grade example is outstanding. Highly desirable in every aspect. From the Yuri Solovey Collection of Japan and Territories
