2016 and 2017 China Silver 5 Notes Monkey and Rooster

[The HRS Collection]

Hi

Ive never graded with PMG before and have recently been sent some Year of the Monkey and Year of the Rooster silver 5g notes. I have one of each colourised and non colourised. 

On the submission form it says I need to have the Catalog number which I have no idea where to start but also I don't know the denomination or currency. I thought it was yuan however it seems China have a lot of different currencies. 

If someone could possible help me with the cat number for these four notes that would be fantastic and also the currency.

With kind regards

Matt

I'm not sure that they have Pick #s. Both are silver foil commemoratives and neither are in the latest edition of the SCWP, so I would say you're good leaving the catalog section blank.

Try posting this in the ASK PMG section, Jennifer is pretty good at answering questions there.

Thank you I shall do that! These are literally the first notes I've ever sent but probably won't be the last. Just worried as on the invoice it said it was essential information. 

You mention SCWP is this a works catalogue for notes?

With regards

The SCWPM (Sorry, left the "M" out in my last post) is the #1 reference for world paper money and what PMG typically uses. I think the latest edition of the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money is the 25th edition published in 2019 and I didn't see your notes in it. Banknotes are very popular in China and there are probably other reference catalogs out there but I don't know what they are.

PMG replied in the other thread as per your suggestion. I will just pay the $5 search fee if I start to get more notes I may look to purchase this book but for the moment for the sake of $5 just let them do it. Thank you for your assistance though!
