Rhodesia & Nyasaland SCWPM# 20a, 30.3.1957 10 Shillings. PCGS Gem New 66PPQ. Fr-P-20a. An incredible high grade example from this scarce British Commonwealth issue, from a short-lived federation of several central African states. It is ideally centered, with exceptional colors and not a trace of circulation. Fully uncirculated examples of this note are very rare, and this piece is tied with one other piece (a PMG graded 66) for the finest graded example from either of the two major grading services. The Krause reference lists this Pick number at $2300 in "UNC," and we would not be surprised at all if that number, and our conservative pre-auction estimate, are blown away in spirited bidding.
Estimated Value $1,250 - 1,750.
