Description
Exceptional Serial Number 3 $20 1890 Treasury Note
Fr. 372 $20 1890 Treasury Note PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ.Serial number 3 is found on this appealing note that has a large, spiked brown Treasury seal and an ornate back with "TWENTY" curved gently in the center on the back. Of the sixty three notes listed in the Track & Price census for this Friedberg number, this example has the lowest serial number. PCGS has only graded one example higher, a 66, and PMG has only graded one example higher, a 67 with serial number A5 that we sold for $115,000 in our September 2006 Long Beach sale. This piece has pedigrees to several great collections, including Bluestone, B. Max Mehl, and Bob Schermerhorn. Mehl and Schermerhorn were both members of the Dallas Coin Club that was established in May 1928. Schermerhorn was among those who traveled to Egypt in 1954 for the sale of King Farouk's numismatic collection. This wonderful serial number A3 note has nice margins and great color.
