Undoubtedly one of the rarest circulating Polish banknotes of the 20th century.
The 10 zloty 1924 of the third issue is a banknote that was not included in the first edition of Czesław Miłczak's catalog. Over the years, the authenticity of the variety was debated and questioned among enthusiasts. Some claimed that the banknote was a forgery based on a previous issue. The existence of designs marked with the third issue has definitely dispelled all doubts, and today it is an item sought after by advanced collectors, missing from the vast majority of Polish banknote collections.
The Lucow Collection's assigned rarity index of R8 is, in our opinion, awarded slightly overstated, although R7 reliably reflects the real rarity of the offered banknote. Known auction listings should close in on 10 pieces!
The offered piece is beautiful and noteworthy natural, without a trace of any interference.
The paper, despite fractures and tears, remains stiff, is relatively clean and the printing colors are beautifully reproduced.
A piece with great conservation potential, given the quality and freshness of the paper. Nevertheless, in our opinion, it is in its presented natural condition that it is particularly attractive.
A beautiful item, it will no doubt be a highlight of any collection.
