Description

Fr. 374. 1890 $20 Treasury Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ.
Here is a wonderful high-end Gem $20 Ornate Back $20 Treasury Note. This variety features the engraved signatures of Treasury officials Rosecrans and Nebeker to the lower left and right of center respectively. While every other denomination in the Treasury Note series featured an instrumental Union military or political figure from the Civil War era, the $20 displays the portrait of Chief Justice John Marshall at left. Marshall served briefly as U.S. secretary of state to President John Adams before becoming the 4th chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, a position he held for 34 years until his death in 1835.

Estimate: $50000.00- $75000.00
