Identification details
- Product name: Second Series Renminbi 1953 Red 1 Yuan Banknote
- Category: banknote
- Date or decade shown: 1953
- Marks and details to photograph: the denomination, issue date, prefix or serial number, watermark and printing type
Identify Second Series Renminbi 1953 Red 1 Yuan Banknote from the date wording 1953, not from a similar listing or box. Keep the item's own accessories beside it.
Photographs and condition
Keep enough context around close-ups of full front and back, denomination, serial or prefix number, watermark, paper, edges, holder and certificate. Do not crop away the surrounding feature that locates a mark.
Capture the current condition of paper, creases, stains, pinholes, tears, edges and any holder or certificate. Photograph flaws directly rather than cleaning or disguising them.
Storage, accessories and handover
Before any further handling, keep each banknote flat in a clean archival sleeve, away from moisture and direct light. Do not fold, press, erase or clean it.
For the initial review, keep each banknote or sheet with its holder, certificate, envelope and provenance documents.
