1903年印度新金山中国汇理银行5元面额提升到100元，除了面值以外乃是真品，阿拉伯、中文及英文面额被更改成100，唯独背面英文面值仍然是原本的数值，附随一封1911年的书信解释此枚僞钞如何传到银行手里。VG品相，中心有穿孔及背面有毛笔书写痕迹，若是没有被更改便会是一枚十分珍罕的首发日期票。The Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China,$5 raised to $100, CONTEMPORARY FORGERY, 1.10.1903, the base note is genuine but the denomination in Arabic numbers, English and Chinese have all been changed the $100on the obverse but not on the reverse which is quite remarkable, also accompanying the note is a letter from the Bank dated 7th July 1911 to state that this note was presented to (their) Canton (Guangzhou) offices by Messrs. Howarth Erskine Ld. who received it from one of their contractors, a fascinating pair of items,(Pick 34 for type), very good, central hole and brush pen writing, CANCELLEDwritten in crayon. This is the very first date of issue for type and would have be an extremely rare early note had it not been altered.
