CHINA--PEOPLES REPUBLIC. Beijing Banknote Printing Co. 10 Yuan, ND. P-Unlisted. Front & Back Test Notes. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 & Superb Gem Uncirculated 67 EPQ.This very scarce pairing of Front & Back Test Notes from the Beijing Banknote Printing Company are seldom offered as a pairing. The front design shows a well detailed portrait of Confucius at right center, and a watermark of Chairman Mao Zedong can be seen at left. The face is found in a Superb Gem Unc 67 EPQ grade. The back design displays the Guilin Scenery with a watermark of Mao at right, and is found in a Choice Unc 64 grade with PMG commenting "Previously Mounted." This ultra rate pairing of notes is certainly missing from even the most famous and respectable collections of Chinese Banknotes, as just a scant few of any Beijing Test Notes are ever available across any design or denomination, let alone a front and back pair. Truly an exceptional pairing that will surely excite our biggest clients.
