Description
Courtesy Autographed Serial Number 7 $2 Battleship
Fr. 760. 1918 $2 Federal Reserve Bank Note. Richmond. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Serial Number 7. Courtesy Autographs.
A rare opportunity that transcends multiple areas of interest. From the collector of low and fancy serial numbers to one who specializes in something more arcane like courtesy autographs, this note is a veritable numismatic treasure. Featuring a pair of courtesy autographs from George Keesee and George Seay this example has the distinction of hailing from the second sheet ever printed for this Friedberg on account of the serial number E7A. Even in the absence of these distinctions, the condition of this note would set it apart from its fellow survivors. Assigned a grade of Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ by the likes of PMG, it stands as one of the finest surviving representatives of the individual Friedberg with no betters, a distinction unlikely to be eclipsed barring an exceptional discovery and one sure to appeal to the condition-focused collector seeking only the best. Of particular note, bidders will also have the opportunity to bid on its $1 counterpart which also features the same serial number and courtesy autographs from Keesee and Seay. A rare opportunity on its own, and an ever rarer opportunity in conjunction with its counterpart. PMG Pop 4/None Finer.
From the Porter Collection.
Estimate: $8000.00- $12000.00
