Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ

This extremely scarce variety has only five notes listed in the census as UNC, from the 48 notes in private hands. This note previously appeared in our October 2005 sale, Lot 128, where it was described as, "This is the first public appearance of low #E8 $20 1891 Silver Certificate. It is also at least equal to the previously finest known #E5 which sold in 1955. No other circs have appeared with this signature combination since then. This note is gorgeous as it has bold margins, great color and is beautifully original. This is truly an exceptional example of the Rosecrans-Nebeker small red seal with the new back design. Graded Gem UNC 65 EPQ by PMG.
