Description

Fr. 1605. 1928E $1 Silver Certificate. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ.
A short-lived series and one where notes are scarce regardless of condition. This highly original and eye appealing note is representative of a run of 3.5 million notes printed very early in 1934, the redemption clause on the Series of 1928E is different than that used on the Series of 1934 by promising the bearer "One Silver Dollar." The Treasury was effectively released from its obligation to pay the bearer with silver dollars with the Series of 1934 and as a result, the Series of 1928E was discontinued and relegated to the pages of numismatic history becoming an avidly pursued Friedberg seen with much infrequency today compared to its common counterparts.
From the Porter Collection.

Estimate: $3000.00- $5000.00
