WORLD BANKNOTES 360 - CHINA Many of China's Finest Historical Banknotes |
Banknotes from China seem to be
particularly popular. China appears to
have issued a greater variety of banknotes over the decades than any other
country. Many of these China banknotes
are quite well designed and very colorful.
Ming Dynasty notes from the years 1368 through 1450 or so are
rare. Banknotes from the Ch'ing
Dynasty (1644-1911) are somewhat available, but they do not usually have the great
vignettes shown on China notes from later years. China banknotes from the subsequent years
of the Republic are mostly quite attractive and have developed a large
collector base. There were many Chinese
issuing agencies during those years. The PMG population report shows that many of
the China banknotes are rare in the upper grades. In many cases, the only gem-quality notes
graded by PMG are specimens and proofs; those collecting only issued notes must
settle for lower grades. |
