The highest denomination of marks issued in the General Government with a correctly written "General-Government" clause.
Typologically a rare banknote in such a nice state of preservation.
Broken centrally, the rest of the banknote field technically unchallenged.
A beautiful piece with perfectly preserved, naturally striated paper texture and a clear printing gloss, visible even through the slab.
Attention is drawn to the exquisite color saturation of the printing, which is a shortcoming of many pieces, often rated higher by PMG.
The awarded bill from PMG, while solid, still does not reflect the beauty and freshness of the presented bill.
This is the second highest-rated piece by PMG with the addition of the EPQ, where it should be noted that none of the pieces graded above the note 60 received the said distinction.
Piece destined for the collection, where natural state of preservation and fresh presentation is the overriding factor in the selection of qualities.
World War I led to a currency crisis in Poland, so the institution of the Polish National Loan Fund was established in the General Government. With the decree of Jeneral-Governor Hans Beseler on December 9, 1916, the PKKP was authorized to issue ½, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 Polish marks.
