No tickee no washee! Great images but I haven't a clue other than I notice there is no banknote company noted along the edge design. Lots of Ta ching banknotes for sale and they all have company credits. Me thinks this is a copy. Peace Roy

Not authentic. The authentic notes have a different reverse. These are replicas. Notice on the back that it says "Sight Banknote" - the denomination is spelled out there on the originals - "Ten Dollars." Here's a link to the same note in pink.

If you don't have an account you won't see that this lot was passed on.
Interesting. A lot of the early 20th century Chinese notes are very attractive,
I guess the clues to this one are as mentioned above.
Might just send it to PCGS currency in January.

You can send it in but you'll be wasting a grading fee.
Some of the notes on the linked page are genuine, some not. The engraved ones are genuine, the poorly lithographed copies are not. Unfortunately, yours is a copy. There's a pretty big difference in the sharpness between the two.
