Fr. 111. 1880 $10 Legal Tender Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Daniel N. Morgan Courtesy Autograph
A "Jackass" of uncommon quality, this example is not special solely on account of the assigned grade, but also a distinction rarely seen in any capacity. Featuring the penned courtesy autograph of Treasurer Daniel N. Morgan who served under the administrations of Presidents Cleveland and McKinley from June 1893 to June 1897. Morgan a banker and grocer by trade led a long and distinguished life in public service and in his native Connecticut before dying at the age of 86 after being struck by an automobile in which the late Treasurer sustained mortal injuries. Throwing in the proverbial cherry this note is among a small number of examples enumerated by PMG at this lofty grade with no betters, indeed a piece without question that transcends multiple areas of focus and is sure to be of interest to a good number of advanced collectors once it crosses the auction block. PMG Pop 9/None Finer.
