Fr. 1072a $100 1914RS Boston
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 EPQ    

---

Design 137. Small red scalloped seal. This is the early red seal on the $100 FRN from 1914. It features Benjamin Franklin's portrait in the center and a red scalloped seal at the right, along with red serial numbers. The back is a lovely allegorical group of five figures. Here is a gorgeous example of the rarely seen $100 Red Seal FRN. This type is normally only seen from this district because of a hoard of 18 notes that surfaced a couple of decades ago, probably from an old banking family. This note is a beauty that has excellent embossing in the middle area. Very attractive with excellent white paper, beautiful red, black and green printing and very nicely centered as well. This district shows 23 notes known and 5 are not UNC. Records indicate a Ch. New 64 by PMG and PCGS lists two 65 PPQ, one 66 PPQ and one 67 PPQ.
