Fr. 1336 50c Third Issue Spinner PMG Choice
<B>Fr. 1336 50c Third Issue Spinner PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ.</B></I> Martin Gengerke purchased this note in 1973 from Lester Merkin. CAA's offering of the note in January of 1995 included the following description, "A classic rarity missing from many major collections. Deep original embossing and superb printing quality on both sides. There is a minor ink smear in the somewhat narrow left face margin and another at the top of the back. The four Green Back Spinners with the "A-2-6-5" surcharge are a very rare series, and this "1" and "a" note appears as only one of 12 from the sheet. Seldom available in any grade, it is not likely that the opportunity to improve on this note will appear any time soon." Accompanying this solidly margined near-Gem is a "Certification of Provenance" from the Martin Gengerke Collection. The note is wholly original and features a partial plate number on back.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
