In the world of collecting, banknote collecting has always been an area of great interest. In the banknote collection, the 1953 1 yuan note in the second set of renminbi has attracted attention due to its unique status and historical value. This banknote is called red 1 yuan by Tibetan friends because of its red face as a whole, and its preciousness lies in its historical background and the rarity of circulation.
As an important part of the history of the issuance of Chinese people's currency, the second set of RMB red 1 yuan banknotes has extremely high collection value and historical significance, and was officially issued on March 1, 1955. The background of the issuance of the second edition of the red 1 yuan banknote was in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the task of economic recovery and development was very arduous. In order to meet the people's demand for currency, China** issued the second edition of the red 1 yuan banknote. The difficulty of plate making and printing technology of this kind of banknote are very high, and its production process and number of issues are to echo the needs of the historical era at that time.
In circulation, people gradually found that this beautiful 1 yuan banknote is prone to fading, melting ink, etc., and the experience of using it is not good. Therefore, after research, Yang Ma found that black ink was more stable, so in 1961 a new version of the 1 yuan banknote using black ink was issued. In addition to the different colors, the design of the black 1 yuan has also been fine-tuned, and the year has been changed to 1956. In contrast, the circulation of red 1 yuan is smaller, and the good products that have survived to this day are even rarer.
Over time, the value of the red $1 note became apparent. In last year's Guardian 2022 autumn auction, a PMG 67-cent red 1 yuan note sold for 6670,000 **. In this year's Anhui Dengtong auction, a red 1 yuan banknote with the same score can already be auctioned for 12650,000. This is enough to illustrate the rarity and collectible value of the red 1 yuan banknote.
In recent years, a variety of rare first and second editions have continued to set auction records. Due to their scarcity, these precious banknotes are becoming more and more sought after by collectors. For those red $1 notes that are still in circulation, their value is also rising. I wonder if you can still find the 1953 1 yuan note in your home?
In addition to the red $1 banknote, other precious banknotes have a similar situation. For example, the "Four Heavenly Kings" banknotes in the first set of renminbi have now fetched millions of dollars. These precious banknotes not only represent the economic and historical background of the era, but also become the object of collectors' pursuit.
When collecting banknotes, you need to pay attention to factors such as condition, edition, and circulation. In general, precious banknotes tend to be of high condition and have a specific historical background. In addition, different versions of banknotes have different collectible value and historical significance. Therefore, collectors need to choose the banknotes that suit them according to their interests and financial strength.
In general, the red 1 yuan banknote, as a member of the second set of renminbi, has a unique historical background and circulation advantages. Its preciousness lies not only in its collection value, but also in the fact that it has witnessed the changes and development of China's currency history. If you can still find such a note at home, consider keeping it so that it may be worth more in the future.
