Fr-373. 1890, $20 Coin Note. Finest known of only 8 pieces. This is the rarest of the three varieties that make up the 1890 series. Most known examples are in poor or heavily circulated conditions (a fact reflected in the Friedberg book, where this variety is priced at $4,000 in Very Good and with dashes in Very Fine and Extremely Fine)! This is a nice, clean note with no noticeable flaws or impairments. The paper is bright and the overall appearance is impressive for the type and grade. A wonderful opportunity for the serious collector to obtain a note that is not only rare, but finest known for the variety!
The portrait on this note is of John Marshall, former Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court also famous the definitive biography of George Washington (published in five volumes from 1804-1807). CGA graded Extremely Fine 40. Estimated Value $20,000 - 22,500
