Item details and appraisal notes

This 1949 First Series Renminbi 1 Yuan banknote carries the Workers and Peasants subject. Start with a complete front image that keeps the figures, printed value, date and border together, then add the reverse at equal scale. Prefix, serial, corners and paper condition should follow as separate evidence rather than being compressed into one close photograph.

Denomination1 Yuan
Named subjectWorkers and Peasants
Broad identificationThe subject, value and date establish the stated type. Minor varieties require clear characters and print detail on this item.

Keep the group subject, number line and paper in context

Complete design view: Photograph front and back under even neutral light, leaving a small clear margin around every edge. The Workers and Peasants scene, 1 Yuan value and 1949 date should remain readable in the first view. Close details can then be tied to an exact printed position.

Prefix and serial: Capture every visible character in one frame, including alignment and nearby ink. If wear, a stain or a fold obscures a digit, add a second light angle without redrawing the number. State any uncertainty directly.

Paper condition and completeness: Show all four corners, cut edges, folds, foxing, water staining, pinholes, tears, pressing, backing and repairs. A locator photograph should precede an enlarged defect. Keep paper grade separate from the named subject.

Three views that answer different questions

Image groupPurpose
Identity pairMatching front and reverse views with date, 1 Yuan value, subject, border and overall paper tone.
Number evidenceThe entire prefix and serial with enough surrounding print to show their position and any obstruction.
Condition evidenceCorners, edges and local damage shown at natural colour, with raking light added only for visible texture.

Keep accessories separate and leave treatment untouched

Leave the banknote unwashed, unpressed and free of fresh tape. Photograph a surviving album, envelope, certificate, holder or family note separately, then beside the item for context. If a watermark is visible, use a dedicated transmitted-light image; if not, make no claim about one.

Series reading before a denomination comparison

The First Series Renminbi provides the broad issue list; the First Series Renminbi: Denominations, Designs and Evidence helps organise values and subjects. Neither should supply an unreadable digit or unseen paper feature.

常見問題點擊展開答案

What should agree on the 1949 Workers and Peasants 1 Yuan note?

Begin with a complete view showing the 1949 date, 1 Yuan inscription and Workers and Peasants subject together. Add the reverse, surrounding text and all edges before considering a minor variety.

How should the complete serial be photographed?

Use one natural-colour frame for the prefix and every serial digit, including their alignment and surrounding paper. Add a close detail only when a character is faint or obstructed.

What should happen to folds, stains or old repairs?

Leave them as found. Photograph each condition point first on the complete side and then at closer scale; washing, pressing or taping may hide evidence needed for examination.
