Grade: PCGS VF 25

For those of you in the currency hobby (and you know who you are) that have been waiting for just the right opportunity to burgeon your Scandinavian bank note collection, look no further. An enormously margined and deeply embossed note with bold signatures is here for the taking. Since our nation was never hostile toward the Swedes, there wasn't any pressure to change the bank name as many of the German-American banks felt compelled to do. CAA sold this note for $345 back in 2011 and it may be some time before the next opportunity arises.
