Description: 

Barranquilla, Colombia, Banco de Barranquilla, 20 pesos, 26-7-1900, series P, serial 05638, PMG Good 4 net / paper damage, tape repairs.

SCWPM-S258, DP-7497. Very rare note from this issuer and in a typical condition for Colombian bills of this time period. Notes from Colombian private banks in the early 1900s traded often and were printed on sub-par paper, hence most rare types are seen with heavy circulation. PMG holder notes paper damage and tape. Still possesses colorful ink, the serial and signatures faded yet with serial number fully visible. One of just two in the PMG census, the other being a Fine 12 example. Comparable in quality to the example sold in Lyn Knight's 2015 Memphis sale for $1,416 all in. PMG #8044294-013.
