Commentary

Surcharge LIBAN 1939 en noir sur P.12F (Liban, 1935). Barre transversale verte (type A).
Il s'agit ici d'un billet d'exception, de grande rareté et en bel état de conservation. D'après Abdo Ayoub (Lebanon Paper Money and Coins, p.62-63), seulement trois billets, avec cette surcharge et ce type de configuration, sont connus : "It is the most enigmatic bill of the entire Lebanese collection".
