Description

Attractive Mid-Grade 1880 $50 Legal Tender

Fr. 164 $50 1880 Legal Tender PMG Very Fine 30.
A well margined and evenly circulated example of this popular high denomination Legal Tender, this example exhibits pleasing color and solid paper. Friedberg 164 is the number usually chosen by type collectors for this Benjamin Franklin-America design that includes Friedberg numbers 152-64 with the populations listed in Track & Price split between Fr. 152-63 (247) and Fr. 164 (257.) Fr. 164 is not only the last Friedberg number for this design but also the last number for Legal Tender $50s. More important, its population figure puts this design within the reach of many more collectors. According to Track & Price, another PMG Very Fine 30 note fetched $6,300 at auction last year. The nice comment-free representative for the grade in this lot should seriously challenge, if not surpass, the earlier figure.
