Reason: High quality, high EV (presented as a complete set). Does this seem like déjà vu? Similar, but different...
Formed on 28 October 1918, the Czechoslovak Republic was not prepared to issue banknotes until currency laws were passed. The first regular issue notes were dated 15 April 1919. In the intervening 5 ½ month period a provisional currency was used. The 1919 provisional issue of Czechoslovakian banknotes used 1902–15 Austro-Hungarian Bank issues. An important difference from the Hungarian issue (or all of the other provisional issues using the same base notes) – the Czech took over-stamp literally – affixing an adhesive stamp equal to 1/100 the value of the note (i.e., 1 koruna = 100 haleru) to the left front side, this served as validation of legal tender status in the Republic of Czechoslovakia. Following currency reform, the first regular issue banknotes were printed with a date of 15 April 1919. (NOTE: The 10 korun note is already featured individually and would simply become part of the set - it would not be featured a second time).
Original: A five-note complete set of the very short-lived issue of 1919 provisional Czechoslovak koruna using Austro-Hungarian krone as a base note with a validation stamp. One side is printed entirely in German, the other in Hungarian. The value of the note (on the German language side) appears additionally in Czech, Polish, Croatian, Slovene, Serbian, Italian, Ukrainian and Romanian.
