Description

Fr. 156. 1880 $50 Legal Tender Note. PMG Fine 12 Net. Repaired.

Just over a dozen examples of this rare $50 Legal Tender variety are known to collectors. This catalog number displays the Wyman-Bruce signature combination which transposed the Treasurer and Register signatures. The type is seen with a portrait of founding father Benjamin Franklin at left. At right is an allegory of America, seen as a determined young woman wearing a crown bearing the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM. A sword is in her right hand while her left arm lies on a shield bearing a patriotic eagle. PMG comments "Repaired."

Estimate: $4000.00-$6000.00
