Item DescriptionOnly 7 grade finer according with PMG Pop Report! This exceptional and historic Ukrainian note is more than 100 years old! This banknote was banned in the Soviet Union, and for its storage it was possible to go to prison. The occupation authorities did not like the large image of the Ukrainian coat of arms - the Trident. It has withstood quite a test of time in such remarkable condition. PMG graded 66 EPQ (exceptional paper quality).
The design of the 500 hryven banknote was painted by the famous Ukrainian artist Georgiy Narbut. In addition to the trident, he painted a young girl in a wreath of fruits and berries. This girl was an allegory that symbolized the young Ukraine. Narbut sketched her image from Ceres - the Roman goddess of fertility and grain growing. This symbol perfectly characterized the fertile Ukrainian lands and the people who live there.
These banknotes were printed in Berlin by order of the government of the hetman Pavlo Skoropadsky. To transport such valuable cargo from Germany to Ukraine by train was unsafe due to the hostilities in Eastern Europe. To solve this problem, the Ukrainian government rented 5 large bombers from Germany, which were converted into cargo planes.The money was transported by German pilots accompanied by Ukrainian diplomats.
This is an excellent banknote to your collection, as well as an excellent investment. Money of the Ukrainian People's Republic is becoming more expensive from year to year, but still remains extremely undervalued compared to American money. Do not miss the chance to buy a real piece of Ukrainian history.
