Description
Great Serial Number I5A Minneapolis Battleship
Fr. 772 $2 1918 Federal Reserve Bank Note with Serial Number Five PCGS Choice About New 58PPQ.A great note which is one of only three low number Minneapolis Battleships reported to date. Only two of that trio bear a single digit serial, with the other a somewhat circulated specimen listed in the census as Extremely Fine. We are somewhat mystified by the PCGS assigned grade here, as we sold this note back in 2000 graded Choice CU and it was sold five years later by another leading currency auction firm as Gem CU, finally winding up in a CGA Superb Gem 67 holder. With the note's originality unquestioned by the graders and easily evident through the holder, we simply are unable to see the grade limiting factor that removed this piece from a considerably higher grade. Whatever the technical grade, expect some fierce competition for this single digit Battleship before the hammer falls tonight.
