Fr. 61a $5 1862
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ

Design 11. Small red seal. There are many minor varieties of the First Issue of $5 Legal Tender notes but one fact remains consistent, this issue was blessed by big margins. Unfortunately several of the notes were handled less than delicately by the bankers over the years. This note has done a much better than average job in both regards. It has excellent paper quality and pretty darn nice margins, hence it is lovely for the grade. Of the 690 notes reported there are 5 others that share this grade.
