This banknote was issued by the Austro-Hungarian Bank and originally dated January 2, 1902. It was one of the largest and highest-value denominations of its time, featuring intricate blue-toned artwork and a portrait of a woman representing the empire. After World War I (around 1919), many of these notes were "overprinted" with stamps like Deutschösterreich to remain valid in the new Republic of Austria. It is a popular piece for collectors due to its historical link to the fall of the Habsburg Monarchy.
