French Somaliland Banque de l'Indochine 100; 1000 Francs ND (ca. 1928-38); ND (1938) Picks 8s; 10s Two Specimens PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ; About Uncirculated 50 Net. An interesting and beautiful pair of notes that bear the signatures corresponding with a 1938 release. Each of these larger format types has a perforated cancellation atop the watermarked area. The scarce 1000 Francs has some damage to the back from the previous mounting, paper pull, missing corner and foreign substance. Otherwise, the 1000 is pleasing, but it is the 100 Francs that is quite rare in its elusive grade. A desirable pairing. From the Yuri Solovey Collection of Banque de l'Indochine
