BELGIUM. Banque Nationale de Belgique. 10,000 Francs-2000 Belgas, 1929-42. P-105. PCGS Choice About New 55.This large format 10,000 Francs from Belgium is one of the most beautifully designed notes in the spectrum of World Paper Money. The color on this piece is striking and uncommon for the type as the paper and ink used typically causes most of the examples of these notes to be faded and heavily problematic. The vignettes are life-like with Poseidon holding his trident. Allegorical figures including Demeter (Ceres) at left and Poseidon (Neptune) at right. Both are seen with horses below them and maidens below the horses. At center is a statuesque Lion resting above the obligation. Marvelous centering with the eye appeal of a much higher grade. This is the finest graded example we have handled for the type.
