Description

Fr. 953b. 1914 Red Seal $20 Federal Reserve Note. New York. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ.

A scarce and short-lived type on its face, most 1914 Red Seal FRNs that have weathered the cruel advances of time have experienced extensive circulation and have fallen victim to any number of problems such as a faded overprint. However, unlike the bulk of its peers this note appears as fresh as the day it was printed almost 110 years. Bestowed with an utterly exceptional assigned grade without compare, and a red overprint that remains bright and wholly original this note is among the finest of its type and denomination sourced from a small run of comparable notes. With frame-like margins that present the note in a manner reminiscent of a portrait among the great art galleries of Europe, this note will certainly grab the attention of prospective bidders and non-bidding parties alike. PMG Pop 8/None Finer.

Estimate: $15000.00- $25000.00
