Description
Fr. 1231SP 5¢ First Issue No Frameline Wide Margin Back PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ.This note is one of the very rare no-frameline First Issue Wide Margin Backs. All normal Wide Margin First Issue Specimen Backs have a thin but bold black frame line that surrounds the engraving at about the distance where the edges of a Regular Issue note would be. Examples are known of the Five Cent, Ten Cent and Fifty Cent denominations, with no Twenty-Five Cent yet discovered. An unproven but generally accepted theory is that these were produced for Treasury Specimen books but were not used. The 25¢ note that appears in those books also lacks the frameline but has the "ABNCo" monogram, which these notes lack. The 5¢ offered here is the most common, with four or five examples known. Milt Friedberg had only a 5¢, Tom O'Mara had a 5¢ and 10¢, and Wayne Liechty had a 5¢, 10¢ and 50¢. Our most recent sale of this very note was in April of 2009 when it realized $1,725 at our Central States auction.
