In higher grades, maybe. I believe i have the last note, but i also remember there were several notes with similar designs listed in the SCWPM. I really like the china note! I really love the designs on them!! __________________ Please visit My coin and currency Website.

Agreed, I also like how the eastern nations design their bills.   09-20-2009, 09:17 AM   #4 (permalink) clayirving Supporter**   Join Date: May 2009 Posts: 226 The value of the first note depends on the grade of the note and the signature, and ranges from $3 to $60. From Standard Catalog of World Paper Money, General Issues, 1368-1960: 1930 Shanghai Customs Gold Units issue was primarily intended to facilitate customs payments, but during and aftern Worl War II the notes were used for general circulation. The 1930 issue was printed into the 1940s. Obverse: Dr. Sun Yat-sen, President of the Canton Government from 1917 to 1925.
