China Central Bank 1928 10 Dollars - Shanghai - PMG 64 Choice UNC EPQ (ABNC)
​Up for auction is an exceptional and highly sought-after piece of Asian numismatic history: a 1928 Central Bank of China 10 Dollars banknote (Pick# 197h) issued in Shanghai, printed by the prestigious American Bank Note Company (ABNC).
Graded PMG 64 Choice Uncirculated with the coveted EPQ (Exceptional Paper Quality) designation. Finding Republic of China banknotes from this era with original paper preservation, bright inks, and zero restoration is increasingly rare.
Issued during the Republic of China period, this classic note features the iconic portrait of Dr. Sun Yat-sen on the reverse and intricate, vibrant lathe-work engraving on the obverse. The Shanghai place name adds strong regional appeal, as Shanghai was the financial hub of East Asia at the time.
Produced by ABNC, known for its world-class security printing, crisp details, and rich color dynamics. The deep green tones on the reverse and multi-colored geometric patterns on the obverse remain remarkably fresh.
High-grade examples certified with EPQ from the 1928 Central Bank series are highly desirable among advanced collectors worldwide. Due to historical circulation and environmental factors in Asia, uncirculated notes in pristine condition with original embossing are difficult to source.
​This note represents a premier addition to any serious World Paper Money collection or investment portfolio focusing on vintage Chinese currency.
