1931-35年海峡殖民地叻屿呷国库银票拾圆。正反面试色样票。两张。正反单面一组。蓝色、橘色及五彩设计，乔治五世居右，反面蓝色，中央是徘徊的老虎图，半身像居左。 电光蓝色精美绝伦。从 2023 年 10 月香港拍卖中 1925 年系列中伍元及拾元的高成交价格看来，来自海峡殖民地的试色钞备受藏家钟爱。我们相信此张以及伍元亦会于拍场上掀起轰动，吸引最顶尖及资深的收藏家关注。极为罕见，相信是存世品中品相最卓越的一组。STRAITS SETTLEMENTS. Lot of (2). Government of the Straits Settlements. 10 Dollars, ND (1931-35). P-18p1 & 18p2. Front & Back Colour Trials. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ.Uniface obverse and reverse pair. Blue, on orange and multicolour, George V at right, reverse blue, prowling tiger at centre, classical bust at left. <p>A spectacular colour trial pair in electrifying blue. The popularity of pre-production material from the Straits Settlements is immense judging from our prices fetched for the 5 and 10 Dollars uniface pairs from the series of 1925 in October 2023. We are certain that this lot, as well as the 5 Dollar pair also in this auction, will attract the attention of even the most advanced and discerning of collectors. Extremely rare, and likely the highest condition of the few pairs extant.
