Typologically a rare and sought after banknote. Very rare in fine states.
The issuer of the banknote was the Treasury Ministry, it was introduced due to a widespread shortage of coins, which, due to their bullion content (silver), were captured from circulation and hidden by the public.
Banknote with no fractures or deflections in the field. Lower left corner broken, but in the field unprinted. Minor imperfections and soiling also within the unprinted field, hence no EPQ.
Piece highly rated by PMG. Only one piece received a numerically higher note (66 EPQ), and only 5 pieces received a note of 64 (including two with an added EPQ).
A coin for the best collections, with the second highest numerical bill in the PMG register, where only one other bill was rated higher.
The Polish mark was replaced in 1924 by a currency called zloty, the PKKP was abolished and replaced by the Bank of Poland. The first to be introduced were pass tickets (made in France and England) with denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 zlotys, while 1,000 and 5,000 were not put into circulation. A second issue based on the previous design was issued in 1924. Pass tickets of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 pennies and 2.5 zlotys were released, as well as the 1926 5 zloty bill. The withdrawal of the perfunctory tickets took place in 1932.
