Condition: I would grade this banknote as a nice very fine or much better with all the details being very well preserved. The note's colors are still vivid and bright and retains some of its original crispiness, stiffness and sheen. The note has multiple vertical folds and a horizontal light fold as well as general wrinkling. It is lightly soiled but has no stains, no graffiti, no pinholes, no tears and no splits. Its corners are intact with minimum rounding and a few bumps. The note is all original with no repairs. Please see photos for additional condition information.
