Great pre-WWII note.

Lot 18307: 1942 Malaya 100 Dollars
Malaya 1942 (ND 1945) P-15 PMG Choice Very Fine 35 100 Dollars
The $100 denomination is iconic, as it the highest denomination that is typically encountered. The sheer size and buying power of this note prevented most from being saved. The technical grade of this example is quite good for the type. The minor rust mentioned on the PMG holder is negligible. One of the most popular notes for the entire region and an iconic Commonwealth issue. Rare in any grade with this example being better than average.
Wow - great WWII-era note.

Lot 18401: 1894 Russia State Credit Note Three Rubles
Russia, State Credit Note 1894 P-A55 PMG Very Fine 25 3 Rubles
Another difficult Three Rubles, this example dated 1894. This type looks like the fairly common 1898 issue, but earlier dates such as this with full serial number are much scarcer. Produced from 1887 to 1895, problem-free VF's such as this example are very scarce and seldom are offered for sale in international auctions.
