Fr. 290 $10 1880
Grade: PCGS XF 45

Design 73c. Large red seal. This design is for the Black Backs of 1880. Here we have changed the face design by removing the Roman numeral and replacing the brown seal with a large red seal, similar to the 1880 $5 Legal Tender (Fr. 73) at a glance. I love the color and quality of this fresh first design. The note has much of the appearances of an UNC with nice margins, great color and centering but it does have two folds, a horizontal and a vertical. The quality is truly amazing and with a strong bid you could try to acquire it. Just last year a PMG 40 realized $37,375 at a Stack's sale (10/2/10). Current census indicates 43 notes known with only this one grading "45" and two better grades.
