Signature of bank director Englert.
Beautifully preserved silver ruble with guilloche grid in light hazel shade. Variant with bank director Englert's signature, in the lowest known three-digit series - 107. This coin was not included in Czesław Miłczak's latest catalog.
The silver rubles issued for the Bank of Poland belong to a group of indisputably rare banknotes, extremely rarely offered on the auction market in Poland and abroad. Their current availability is the result of a controlled and prolonged withdrawal from circulation in the 19th century.
The ruble denomination is today virtually the only available representative of this turbulent period in the history of Polish paper money. Within the denomination itself, however, there is a huge difference in the rarity of individual pieces - the vast majority of surviving pieces date from 1847, 1858 and 1866.
Piece in PMG grading with a grade of 20 Very Fine - slightly crude in our opinion. Preserved intense printing colors, clear and convex dry stamp. A small annotation on the reverse, with rusty paperclip marks on the front. Only two pieces rated higher in PMG notes (30).
An exceptionally attractive piece in terms of presentation - with full, saturated color and clear dry-stamp embossing. The rarity of the variety is compounded by the fact that we are dealing with the lowest known three-digit series. An ideal choice for the advanced collector, but also an excellent starting point for a collection of silver rubles - an item that can form a strong pillar of the collection.
