I can find records of four notes known on this very early Chicago charter with one $5 First Charter, this Brown Back and two #1 $5 Brown Backs recorded. This example has been graded Superb Gem New 69 PPQ and inscribed by the president that this was the last note he signed. Now, with some 166,637 large notes recorded (information provided by the NBN Census), this is the finest graded of them all. If you want the best be prepared to keep bidding as there are no others to consider! PCGS notes: contemporary inscription in bottom selvage.
