Description

Fr. 1299. 25 Cent. Third Issue. PMG Choice Very Fine 35.

A classic fractional rarity that has solid bronze surcharge on face and which is printed on fiber paper. Uncommon as a problem free nearly EF note. For whatever reason, the solid surcharge fiber paper Fessenden notes were printed on a much coarser and more brittle fiber paper. These are commonly seen in the Fine-Very Fine grade range with tears, paper chips, stains, etc. A high-grade example found in a comment-free holder is not an everyday occurrence. Today's example possesses eye appeal that extends well beyond the scope of its technical merits.

Estimate: $400.00- $800.00
