Item details and appraisal notes
This 1949 First Series Renminbi Wanshou Hill B 20 Yuan note should not be identified from the hill subject alone. Photograph the complete front with the 20 Yuan value, date, Version B designation and border, then add the reverse at equal scale. Evidence from Version A, a 100 Yuan design or another banknote must not be transferred to this item.
Wanshou Hill B 20 Yuan: isolate the B-version evidence
| Printed feature | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Series | First Series Renminbi |
| Date shown | 1949 |
| Denomination | 20 Yuan |
| Named version | Wanshou Hill B |
| Attribution boundary | Confirm the Wanshou Hill B 20 Yuan version from readable details on this physical note, not from a related Version A note. |
Keep every version detail tied to a complete face
First image pair: Photograph both sides square to the camera with a clear margin around all edges. The Wanshou Hill B 20 Yuan subject, 1949 date and value should remain together under neutral light. A version close-up should follow only after the full face is secured.
Prefix and smaller characters: Include any visible prefix and whole serial with nearby print and paper tone. Try another lighting angle for a faint character while preserving its shape. Do not reconstruct a number or B-version feature from another note.
Wear, staining and treatment: Show folds, foxing, pinholes, water staining, torn corners, trimming, pressing, backing, tape and repair on the proper side. Pair an enlarged defect with its full-face locator and leave earlier work untouched.
Three boundaries when comparing A with B
- Version evidence: The printed B designation, 20 Yuan value and date must be read on this note before the narrower name is accepted.
- Paper observation: Neutral light records colour, raking light shows texture, and transmitted light is reserved for a watermark, thin area or repair that is visibly present.
- Supporting items: Photograph a sleeve, album, label, certificate or holder separately if it survives. Contextual wording cannot replace the banknote's printed evidence.
Store the note without changing its current state
Use a flat dry support, avoid pressure on fragile edges and do not wash, iron, bleach, press or tape the paper. Keep water staining separate from any visible watermark. After the photographs, return the banknote to an inert sleeve away from direct light, heat and moisture.
