PANAMA. El Banco Central de Emision de la Republica de Panama. 1 Balboa, 1941. P-22a. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ. Printed by HBNC. A note that has seen a significant increase in popularity these past few years, but is often encountered in the VF 20-25 range and can be found here in a beautiful Choice Uncirculated grade with PMGs all-important EPQ qualifier. This should find its home in an advanced collection and will likely upgrade any pre-existing examples as this is the sole example in a 64 EPQ grade, with just three notes have been graded finer than this example at the time of cataloging, one of which, the finest, is available the lot prior. Depicted at center is a portrait vignette of Vasco Núñez de Balboa flanked at left and right by strong orange-red lathe work. PMG Pop 1/3 Finer. From the Don Allen Collection.
