Details
Description:
A crisp uncirculated Banknote from the State of Oaxaca in Mexico and is the note dated 10 February 1916. It is a five pesos currency note that appears to be very crudely printed. Although the note is crisp uncirculated, the printing on it looks very crude and exhibits light spots and is difficult to read in other spots. The note shows all the components and elements known to be in the note and as such we are confident it is authentic. However, this may have been a note at the end of the run or a reject and hence the fact that it is uncirculated. It is blue and green on yellow with traces of orange background. It shows the wreathed head of a woman within a circle in the upper left corner and has two signatures. The back shows the large image of Pablo Benito Juarez (President of Mexico at the time and a native of Oaxaca) to the left and a dark brown treasury stamp in the upper right corner. The front has a blue zigzagged border while the back has a green zigzagged border. This particular note has the serial number 810462 on the front twice in black and does not display the serial number on the back. It is series "U" and has two signatures displayed on the front but has no water mark that we could find. The eagle arms of Mexico is in faint yellow in the background of the front. Please carefully review the scans presented as they are part and parcel of our description.

Condition:
For international buyers, please note that the new US postal rates for overseas shipping for first class shipments are generally very high and we are unable to change them. Additional charges will be incurred depending on the value of the item. So please check the shipping cost to your location before bidding. I would grade the banknote as choice crisp uncirculated. Although the note is crisp uncirculated, the printing on it looks very crude and exhibits light spots and is difficult to read in other spots. The note shows all the components and elements it should have and are known to be in the note and as such we are confident it is authentic. However, this particular may have been a note at the end of the printing run and a reject and hence the fact that it is uncirculated. The note is clean, crisp with no tears, pinholes, graffiti, or splits. It has no folds and no wrinkling and its corners are squared with no rounding or bumps. The note is light paper and retains its full crispiness and stiffness. Just a very nice banknote to add to your collection. Please see scan for additional condition information.
