Item details and appraisal notes
This 1949 100 Yuan note carries the Yellow Beihai Bridge design. Begin with an unfiltered front photograph that keeps the bridge, value, date and complete border together, then show the reverse under the same neutral light. Colour is one identifying cue, while prefix, serial and paper condition must be documented separately.
Read the yellow bridge design without turning colour into grade
| Observed field | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Series reference | Listed under First Series Renminbi; confirm that identification from both printed faces. |
| Dated year | 1949 |
| Value shown | 100 Yuan |
| Named colour design | Yellow Beihai Bridge |
| Colour caution | Use neutral white balance and the complete print. Added saturation, staining or paper ageing cannot establish the subtype. |
Photographs that separate printed colour from paper change
Full design and reverse: Place both faces at matching scale, with every corner and edge inside the frame. The Yellow Beihai Bridge subject, 100 Yuan value and 1949 date should be legible before a colour or design detail is enlarged. Keep automatic enhancement and filters off.
Number line and inscriptions: Show the complete prefix and serial together with their paper background. Add the value, date characters and any uncertain text in natural colour. A faint digit should remain unresolved if another light direction does not clarify it.
Condition that can alter appearance: Locate foxing, water staining, folds, pinholes, tears, trimming, pressing, backing and repairs on the proper side. Photograph affected colour beside unaffected paper in the same wider view. Condition should not be mistaken for a printed variant.
Light, handling and temporary storage
Use neutral illumination for colour and gentle raking light for texture. Transmitted light should be added only when a watermark, thin area or repair is actually visible. Leave the paper unwashed and unpressed, then return it to a dry inert sleeve away from heat and direct light.
A concise image checklist
| Area | What the image should retain |
|---|---|
| Printed colour | The full bridge face under neutral white balance, including date, value, border and an unedited colour reference. |
| Numbering and edges | The complete prefix and serial, all four corners and every cut edge, with uncertain characters left open. |
| Paper condition | Stains, folds, thinning, pressing and repairs in their exact locations, followed by close details only where useful. |

Context for comparing First Series colour and design
The First Series Renminbi shows related issues, whereas the First Series Renminbi: Denominations, Designs and Evidence suggests how to compare photographs. Return to the unfiltered paper colour and complete inscriptions before naming a variant.
