Fr. 181 $100 1880
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50 PPQ

Design 27b. Small red scalloped seal. Currently there are 45 notes reported of this signature combination and there has never been an offering of what I would call a true UNC. No UNCs have been graded either. This is one of the finest known because there are only two CUs listed in the census, and four or so are listed as AU. This lovely AU has been graded AU and CU over the years, and there is a very good chance that real UNCs do not exist. If they do, there is no doubt that the prices will start at $100,000 because the few earlier $100 1880 Legal Tenders are way over that level. Here is a lovely example of this desirable type. From the Great Lakes Collection.
