Fr. 39 $1 1917 Legal Tender Note s/n N888888A. PMG has graded this exceptional piece 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, with the notations on the back: "Exceptional Paper Quality, Solid #8s". $1 1917 Fr. 39 Serial Number N888888A. This note could bring a run-away price at today's sale. Estimated Value $6,000 - 12,000
Far rarer than the $1 1899 Silver Certificate solid serial numbers, and a type of solid serial number that is often absent from auctions for the past decade….this $1 1917 Legal Tender Solid Serial #N888888A should bring an exceptional price in The Black Horse Collection auction today.
Previous auction history according to Gengerke: R.M. Smythe 9/17/1999: Lot 2012 @ $1,210; Heritage 1/4/2001: Lot 4525 @ $2,012.50; Lyn Knight 10/16/2004: Lot 59 @ $3,565. With the last public appearance over 18 years ago, don't expect this note to sell in the same price vicinity.

 
Realized $8,400
