    If you collect Oriental Art you will appreciate the intricate detail of this very rare and well preserved Chinese Private Note or Cash Note which is likely one-of-a-kind or close to it. We have a collection of several hundred rare cash notes and this one is at the very top in terms of uniqueness, artistry, rarity and preservation.
    Issued by Yi Yuen Chung in Tsinan circa 1910, this note tells the life story of the Ancient Emperor Qin Shi Huang in a chronological series of delicate blue ink engravings as you might find on the finest Chinese pottery. These flank a central yellow field with Chinese calligraphy. The green back shows a a hilltop temple above boats on a peaceful lake that empties over boulders in the foreground.
    Potentially worth 4 figures or more but priced in the low 3 figures.  Irreplaceable!  No others found anywhere else. This is more than just currency. It is ART of the highest order. Choice Crisp Uncirculated!
