Nice looking note.   As for rarity, Heron has no information about that.

A similar piece in a Heritage auction brought $1700.

The Queen Elizabeth was one of the most beautiful woman appeared on the banknote but not now anymore

Disappointed it worth such little thought it worth more than at least five thousand dollars for these

The note is SO RARE even Krause doesn't have a photo in their catalog. Post a pix of the broken security thread and lion's head watermark.

just looked at Heritage... i see a PCGS 55 Specimen that sold for 13.8K and a PMG 30 that went unsold with a 43K reserve... i don't see the 1.7K note...

My Krause has a pic and says its worth $3k

The catalog photo provided shows that the 3000 is for an Unc Specimen.

No pricing provided for an 'issued note'.  

(Note: Most all of the specimen notes Heron has owned and/or still owns have

             the word specimen overprinted across the note.  Usually front.  In several

             cases, the word 'specimen' was written in a language other than English,

             however, the notes were still 'overprinted').

[elheron-grande]

For what its worth; Heron found an eBay listing for a 'set' of 1,000 & 10,000

reproductions of the Malaya & N. Borneo 1953 issues.   $39.99 US Dollars.  

[agathetyche]

Can you read the serial numbers on the reproductions?

[agathetyche]

The listing shows two varieties of the $10000 note. Raises suspicion though. 

[elheron-grande]

Yes, on the notes listed as re-pros the serial # is thus:

                         A

                    ______     00000

                          1

In addition there is the word CANCELLED in perforated font.

At a 45 degree angle.  (Similar to the use of word SPECIMEN).

I concur. However, if you purchase this listing, you will garnish $0.40 in eBay Bucks !!!
