Lot of 3x Vietnam 1985-1991 Banknotes, All Uncirculated, 3pcs

One of Southeast Asia's two communist states, Vietnam is bordered by China, Laos, and Cambodia. It has been inhabited since the Paleolithic, with the ancestors of the modern Vietnamese population appearing around 1000 BCE. These early people, known as the Lac, practiced wet-rice cultivation in the Red River Delta region. Conflict with Vietnam's much larger neighbour, China, began early in its history, but its unique culture was distinct and established enough to prevent assimilation. Contact with the West began with the Portuguese in 1516 and culminated in Vietnam's conquest by France in the late 19th century. This made Vietnam part of French Indochina, which subjected it to brutal colonial exploitation that it only escaped following France's troubles in the Second World War.

These banknotes date to Vietnam's modern Socialist Republic. The portrait on the 2000 dong note is of Ho Chi Minh, Vietnamese revolutionary and communist leader. The lot includes a 2000 dong note from 1988, a 100 dong note from 1991, and a 1 dong note from 1985. All notes have been graded uncirculated.
