Outstanding 1899 Imperial Railways 10 Dollar

CHINA--EMPIRE. Imperial Chinese Railways. 10 Dollars, 1899. P-A61a. PCGS Currency About New 50.

Shanghai. A very scarce piece with incredible eye appeal from Barclay and Fry Ltd. This larger format note is the first we have handled in recent memory showing all the desirable detail a collector would crave. Bright orange inks lather the background with bolder blue inks making up the intricate details of the design. The reverse shows a railroad bridge with the entire back in a red color. This is the highest denomination of the series that we are offering.
