Please carefully review the scan presented as it is part and parcel of our description. Date: N. 16-3-1918N. Printer: Bank of France. Size: The banknote measures 5" by 3 1/8". Pick Number: P 72a. Condition: I would grade this banknote as a good fine or better with all the details being very well preserved. The note has one heavily soiled vertical fold in the center and two additional vertical folds as well as a horizontal fold. The bottom left corner is folded but is all there and intact with no real loss but gives the impression of being canted in shape, while the other corners are intact with minimum rounding. The note has a hole within the letter "C" of Cinq on the front. It also has considerable soiling on the back on the half with the dock worker's image. The note also displays quite a bit of foxing in the form of brown spots throughout the front and back. The note has no tears, no splits, and no graffiti. It retains quite a bit of its original crispiness. If it was not for the heavy soiling and the hole in the letter "C" I would have graded it extremely fine or better.
