Owner's Description

This series of Bearer checks represented by ZIM28 through ZIM32 only features two denominations - $50,000 (ZIM28 to ZIM30) and $100,000 (ZIM31 & ZIM32). While still and “emergency check” issue and not a banknote, these issues differed significantly from the Traveler’s Checks and Cargill Bearer Checks

ZIM28 was issued on Oct 1, 2005, where ZIM29 and ZIM30 were issued on Feb 1, 2006. I believe all three were redeemable on or before Dec 31, 2006. The ZIM29 had serial number prefixes that started with CA through CK where the ZIM28 and ZIM30 seem to have mostly had prefixes starting with an A. I haven’t been able to confirm this but the ZIM29 may have had a different printer than the P28 and P30, the printer of ZIM29 being Giesecke+Devrient (G&D) of Germany.
