Paraguay 1907 - Banco de la República 5 Pesos Issued Note (Pick 156)

Certified PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, this example is an exceptional survivor of the original issued type. The grade confirms both high preservation and exceptional paper quality, important for a note that was not a specimen or proof but a circulating issue. Most original banknotes of this period were handled, circulated, redeemed, or lost, and high-grade survivors are far less common than the design’s formal elegance might suggest. This piece preserves the portrait, tint, engraving, serial number, watermark-confirmed paper, and reverse design with the clarity needed for serious comparison across the full issue family.
