Description

Fr. 361. 1890 $5 Treasury Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ.
Major General George H. Thomas is portrayed at center on this well preserved 1890 $5 Treasury Note. This Rosecrans-Nebeker signed example comes from the plate C position of the sheet and displays ample margins and deep red serial numbers. All 1890 Treasury Notes have an ornately designed back print which involves all but the borders. These 1890 notes are commonly referred to as Fancy Back notes, and this $5 Treasury Note easily attests to that nickname as it displays vivid detail, accomplished in striking green inks. PMG has certified just a single example finer than the present note.
Ex Joel R. Anderson Collection

Estimate: $20000.00- $30000.00
