| Opmerkingen |
The Ta Ch'ing Government Bank was established by imperial edict in 1905 as China's first government-owned central bank, and this 1906 ten-dollar note represents one of its earliest issues. The printing arrangement is unusual: the Chefoo Mission Press handled part of the production locally while the American Bank Note Company contributed engraved elements — a split-production model that reflects both the urgency of getting notes into circulation quickly and the Qing court's lack of established intaglio printing infrastructure.
The bank itself survived only until 1912 when the dynasty collapsed, making the entire Ta Ch'ing series inherently short-lived. Pick A74 is among the scarcer denominations from the inaugural 1906 issue.
