Is this note as rare as Pick says it is? 1 1

[Pinoynotes - Christopher Gibbs]

The Philippine issue of the late 1980's has what seems to be the rarest of all modern issues. The 100 Piso Replacement note p172b* is so rare it has also been given an extra listing, p172cr, to stress its rarity.

Until recently I thought I had located and purchased the only known copy about 25 years ago, but a week ago a friend let me know he has one. By the looks of his serial number, I dare say there might be only one sheet that was mixed by mistake with a later signature combination.

If you have, or have seen one of these replacements, please let it be known.

I have asked about the Replacement note for p172b, but not the p172b note, as I don't think there is one.

When I discovered this note the Guys a Krause didn't believe I had this Replacement note. When I showed them the note, they listed it as p172cr, AND also listed the "normal" note as p172b (Even though nobody had ever seen one) 

So, if you have either banknote, please let me know.
