Seven Note Specimen Set 5 - 1000 rubles 1895,
Seven Note Specimen Set 5 - 1000 rubles 1895, Pick-A71 thru A77. Extremely Fine or Better. These interesting specimen notes were State Bank Metal Deposit Receipts and have been perforated with the Russian word for specimen. Each specimen has the serial number "12345" and is a different color, except for the 1000 rubles which has the same rainbow color scheme as the Catherine the Great Rainbow 100 rubles notes. Very little information is given in the Krause reference on these notes and certainly a set for the connoisseur of Russian paper money. Four of the notes have pinholes near the left-hand margin suggesting they may have been originally in a specimen booklet. The 5 and 1000 rubles will grade a conservative EF, while the other five notes will grade AU. 7 notes Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
