Lot 1260
1922, $50 Gold Certificate. PCGS Gem New 66PPQ. Fr-1200. KL-705. This sale features several outstanding high grade Gold Certificates, with this the highlight of them all. The $50 denomination is much scarcer than $10s and $20s of the same series in all conditions, even more so in the upper reaches of uncirculated grades. This Gem is one of but four pieces graded 66PPQ by PCGS, with only one example finer to date. This note deserves every bit of the assigned grade, with bold, vivid colors, and exceptional originality. The centering and margins are outstanding on both sides. High grade $50 Gold Certificates are seldom available on the market, which means that any collector who wishes to obtain a true Gem can wait for quite some time between offerings. This example is as nice as any other that we've seen, and likely cannot be topped in terms of sheer appeal. Estimated Value $25,000 - 30,000
