Condition Report (Raw Note):

• The overall design and text are clear and intact. There is a central crease and slight age-related yellowing due to circulation, but no tears, holes, or extensive repairs. The original dual signatures, serial number, and the intricate details of the engraved Victoria Harbour panorama remain well-preserved. The paper retains its original quality—neither brittle nor showing signs of mold.
• This is a raw, ungraded single banknote (not encapsulated in a grading slab). It can be stored in a protective sleeve; however, for long-term collection, professional grading and encapsulation are recommended to preserve its condition and enhance its market value.
