Grade: PMG Ch. XF 45 EPQ

The Fr. 1192 is a fantastic rarity as it existed only as a transition variety, along with the Fr. 1191, to change from the small, brown seal to the small, red seals. Only 13 are known in collector's hands, including a recently discovered note. This note is the finest known and it's appearance is stunning. Previously described in our November 2003 sale, with the CAA May 1998 description, as follows, "This magnificent, broadly margined, fully bright, very rare Gold Certificate is the virtual twin of the outstanding piece we sold last September. It is a new note to the market, having resided in 'The Fantastic Collection' for the last two-score years. Strictly original, three extremely light folds are its only imperfections. The colors are extraordinarily bright, with no signs of toning at all on the face and only minute traces of mellowing in a few small areas of the brilliant orange back." Graded Ch. XF 45 EPQ by PMG.
