This series and signature combination can only be owned by two fortunate collectors, and this note is the finest known. The other example came from one of our greatest collectors, Amon G. Carter, and the other through an equally passionate collector, James Thompson. Any collector should be thrilled to be able to obtain this important rarity. This note was previously sold in our August 2005 sale where it was described as, "This is one of the most important notes of any collection. This is one of two known notes in private hands, and it is the best of the two. This note came to the Great Lakes Collection via the Shiva Collection, who had acquired it from the Thompson Collection. If quality and rarity are your objective, then this should be able to substantially fill both of those voids. It has the Bruce-Gilfillan signature combination, large brown seal and "C" below. It has circulation, but it is nice looking with good margins and generally problem free." Graded VF 20 by PMG.
