<B>Fr. 343 $100 1891 Silver Certificate PMG Fine 12 NET.</B></I> While we totally agree with the assigned grade for this rare Hundred Dollar Silver, even to the point of the "Net," we have a minor quibble with the "Major Reconstruction," comment. We examined this note prior to grading, and while it certainly has had work done, none of it appears to our eye to be actual reconstruction (i.e. rebuilding of paper). What appears to have happened to this note is that it had a considerable amount of rust which has been painted out. Either way, the Net 12 is accurate, but the note certainly gives the appearance of a handsome Fine. All $100 Silvers are rare, and this note has a census just in the low Twenties. PMG has graded only four of this number, with a VF 30 being the highest.<BR><I>From The Thomas M.
