Owner's Description

This gorgeous 1875 NBN from Paris, Illinois came from a last second cut bid during a live auction. The note was ungraded and I knew the centering would be an issue but the grade was more than acceptable. The reverse is one of great beauty. An image of DeSoto discovering the Mississippi adorns the reverse of the $10 note.There are other notes in this surviving lot of 41 $10 and $20 1875 notes listed in Track and Price. All are high quality. These notes provide a great opportunity to own incredible quality 1875's at relatively reasonable prices. Other notes had mounting remnants noted by graders. My guess is some of the sheets were mounted in a bank or somewhere like that. The "previously mounted" noted on this slab is imperceptible to my eye.
