Variant with a large letter S printed on paper with the "eagles" watermark.
An exquisitely preserved banknote that charms with its printing freshness.
The printing colors are beautifully preserved, the paper is clean, and the printing is exquisitely centric.
The banknote bears a PMG certificate with a PMG 66 EPQ rating, which for this issue and denomination, is quite a distinction.
A specimen piece with the highest grade in the PMG register, to the best collections of Polish banknotes. Undisputedly the prettiest May 1,000 that we have had in the history of our auction listings. The last of the two that made it to our auctions.
The February-May issue consists of five denominations designed by Adam Poltawski. The banknotes designed by him are part of the European trend of banknote composition of the time, where the dominant representation was a portrait. In the case of this issue, it is a portrait of a historical figure.
In the case of the lower denominations, the obverse carries informational content about the banknote. On the other hand, the reverse featured propaganda content depicted in the form of portraits.
