FR#259
1886 $5 Silver SERIAL# B14
Grade:
AU
Price: SOLD
Description: This is one of my favorite notes
and it possibly the lowest serial known in public hands for
the type! First of all, this is an FR#259 and there are only
30 known. There are three Serial numbers lower then this, #5
is in the ANA Museum, #8 is in the Fed Reserve Bank of NY and
then there is serial#10 which the census does not show any info
for so I dont know if it is in an institution or owned by an
individual(if someone knows the where abouts of #10, please
let me know). This note has 2 very light bends, I am grading
it AU. Also, #24 is a GEM note which brought over $30,000 in
a Lyn Knight auction over 3 years ago.
