Description
The Highest Graded Fr. 164- One of Only Three Uncirculated Examples Known
Fr. 164 $50 1880 Legal Tender PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. Fr. 164 is represented in the Track & Price census by 200 notes--very few of which are at the upper end of the grade scale. In fact, both grading services together have graded only a total of three uncirculated Fr. 164s. Both PMG and PCGS have each graded a 63, and this 64 stands at the top of the census.

The last time this note appeared at auction was in 1991 where, as a raw note, it was also graded Choice. At that time it realized $3960, which was a very high price for its day.
