Description:
Only The Second Reported Atlanta $5000
Fr. 2221-F $5000 1934 Light Green Seal Federal Reserve Note. PMG Choice Extremely Fine 45 Net.
The attraction of high denomination notes goes beyond just their face value. Since most high denoms were printed mostly for bank to bank transactions, the production runs were small in most every instance. Originally, only 3,600 Series 1934 $5,000 notes were printed for the Atlanta district and most were ultimately redeemed. This recent discovery raises the known survivors from this district to just two examples. The serial number displayed of F0000014A is the lowest known. PMG has commented about a tear restoration which if in the hands of the proper conservator could very well be virtually eliminated. The surfaces are still fully bright and looking strong for the grade while the light green seal and serial numbers are original and well embossed. Estimate: $90,000 - $120,000.
