Gold clause notes are the sleepers. 1928 FRN's should retain their value. Although PMG has graded 39, almost all of the notes extant are PMG 66 EPQ, PMG 65 EPQ and PMG 64 EPQ. I did not get the EPQ moniker but I sure love the FRN's where a number is used on the seal to designate which of the Federal Reserve District the note emanated from originally. For instance, the serial number begins with "L" as is usually the letter placed in the seal. However, in this case the number "12" is used as the 12th Federal District of San Francisco. Pretty cool! Beautiful green reverse.

I keep filling out the 1928 "gold clause" series of all denominations as one can complete these at a very modest cost for large point totals. For instance, this note cost $121. The point tally is 1245. Many might disagree with my method of looking at points per dollar since the entire scoring system is subjective to some degree. This is a case where there there are many notes that have been graded and many notes are graded higher than this 63 EPQ. But the score is still impressive and at a ratio of 10.3 points per dollar is about as good as you can purchase, then this is a deal! The not is attractive, I want to complete several sets where this note fits so the system works for me. I especially apply the points per dollar for low cost, type notes trying to complete sets. When the cost of the note is more than $1000, I am much more careful and pay less attention to the ratio, I would appreciate to hear other's opinion on this.

This note is just simply gorgeous. The obverse is stunning and the emerald green of the reverse for the St. Louis FRN is better than any GEM. Look carefully to appreciate this note. Consider I bought it ungraded for $87 and it came back 64 EPQ. A tiny niche in the market...find the 1928 FRN's with the gold clause, look carefully for ungraded inexpensive notes, examine the detail as carefully as possible and look for jewels.
