Beautiful $50 Brown Back

Newark, OH - $50 1882 Brown Back Fr. 508 The First NB Ch. # 858
We originally sold this note as part of the Don C. Kelly collection of Ohio National Bank Notes, where we described it as "A well margined and vividly colored $50 Brown Back which is a perfect example to cover this scarce and sought after type, as it comes from a bank which is likely the easiest to find in high grade early type specimens. This note comes from a small uncirculated run of $50 Brown Backs, and the originality of the embossing can easily be seen here through the PCGS holder. PCGS has graded this note Choice New 63PPQ, making this perfect for the collector seeking to obtain a high end example of this type and denomination without totally breaking the bank." It realized $16,100 almost three years ago, which seemed a bargain at the time and appears even more so today.
