Fr. 124b. 1862 $20 Legal Tender Note. PMG Very Fine 25.
A very difficult denomination and type to locate in the grade assigned to this example, of the three representatives of this Friedberg that we have handled previously all three had defects ranging from a pair of comments on the holder in the absence of a net grade to being torn in half and repaired (quite crudely) with a strip of tape. Devoid of any of these defects, the only notation on the back of the holder indicates that this note was once held by Mike Coltrane who held it at some point prior to the current consigner. Aesthetic qualities and provenance aside, this note displays even circulation and strong eye appeal befitting its uncommon status as a note with just 24 examples enumerated by Track & Price.
From the Porter Collection.
