The Straits Settlements $5 1929


***This is the ever-popular conifer-green $5 banknote from The Straits Settlements dated 1929 with the vignettes of a boy sitting on a buffalo in a paddy field and that of a prowling tiger.
1929 seems to be an elusive date for this issue as most of the time, one encounters those dated 1925.
