Condition: I would grade this banknote as an extremely fine or better. The note shows some signs of circulation with five flattened light vertical folds. The note shows signs of soiling and a couple of minor stains for the ink on other banknotes that were oiled on it. The note appears to have been flattened and as such has no appreciable wrinkling or creases. The corners show some rounding but are intact. The note has no pinholes, no graffiti, no tears, no splits, and no appreciable wear to the edges. The paper still retains a considerable amount of its original crispiness and is still ftiff. The note may have been flattened in the past as evidenced by all the vertical folds being flattened and unbendable. The colors of the note are clear and still retain their original brightness. Just a nice piece to add to your collection. Please see photo for additional condition information.
