One of the first legal tenders printed in the US. This note is from the Doug Murray collection. The reapplication of the serial number is quite interesting.

I love the PMG 30 EPQ grade with this quality. There are almost no folds, certainly not visible. The colors are superb for the grade. The centering is as good as it gets and corners are excellent except one which has a slight fold. I have a hard time seeing why this didn't grade 40 or above. There are a few very faint folds so that must be the reason it graded so low. Also, the note is vaguely discolored, but less so than most of these 150 year old notes. PMG has reported almost 500 of these notes and only 41 have graded higher WITH the EPQ moniker.

This is the third note purchased at Heritage to attempt to build a decent "Rainbow" collection. The $10, $20 and higher denominations might take a few years and a few paychecks!

A note that is a must. It matches the $5 Lincoln "Porthole" note. The "Poker Chip" and "portholes" are really unique. That having been said, I believe this note, the Lincoln porthole, and the $10, $20 and $50 gold certificate are 5 notes that must be owned. These 1922 series notes are the pinnacle of the grand old large notes as our country was on the brink of moving completely to small note...that grand old beauties never to be again. Even the $1 George Silver Fr-237 (all Speelman & Whites) is the enduring legacy of this famous obverse.
