MALAYA 1942 $100 KING GEORGE VI FIRST PREFIX "A1"

This is one of my latest acquisition the 1941 $100 Malaya KGVI first prefix "A1" but in VF condition. This banknote was printed on the 1st January 1942 by Bradbury Wilkinson UK but was not issued until after the war.

These notes have borderless designs, the signature and serial numbers being on the opposite sides and the denomination repeated in Jawi, top-left, there is little difference in placement of the elements, The notes are significantly larger though but are all the same size.

On the reverse side of the note contains the "crests" but does not have the denomination in Jawi. Around the centre crest is written "Board of Commissioners of Currency, Malaya". 

I will be sending this note to PMG for grading.

1986 RM100 JAFFAR HUSSEIN 6TH SERIES PREFIX "ZV" PRINTED BY UNITED STATES BANKNOTE CO.

I will also be sending these 10pcs consecutive numbers GEM UNC 1986 RM100 Jaffar Hussein to PMG too. These banknotes were printed by United States Banknotes Co and considered scarce because there are only five prefixes printed by USBN they are ZT, ZU (replacement note) ZV, ZW, ZX, ZY.

The replacement note with prefix "ZU" by USBN is the most expensive Malaysian replacement banknote with the catalogue price (KN BOON cat) of MYR50,000.00 per piece for UNC condition. It was the rarest and the least number of pieces issued of 30 pieces under this printer.

The rest of other prefixes were printed by Thomas De La Rue UK in large quantity.

ZV 4119860 - ZV 4119869 

Happy Reading.
