Scott #R17 [1919 50 Bit Documentary] Used, with F-VF centering ON DOCUMENT. 27 November 1926 Bill of Exchange, canceled that date and payable one year later. Ornate check-like format payable at the "National Bank of the Danish West Indies" at Christiansted, in the sizable amount of 12,500 Francs! Includes a Danish-DWI "logo" consisting of palm trees, the Danish crown, and the Danish three lions with hearts. Even though this Bill of Exchange was issued 9 years after the sale of DWI to the U.S., this bank had been granted, in 1904 for 30 years, special privileges and could issue "Danish king currency" and use their own currency system, alongside the U.S. Dollar until 1934. Two other revenue stamps may have been affixed on the left side of the Bill; there are parts of cancellations, but no detectible indication (even under UV light) of remnants of stamp removal; thus those markings may have been overlap from canceling another document. The 50 Bit revenue stamp is placed in the center of the document where it was creased when the document was folded (into quarters). The used stamp alone has a Scott value of $40 -- this is a scarce item! Very attractive! Any on-document DWI or VI revenue uses are extremely scarce. This is the first such items I have had in 47 years!
