Fewer than 30 examples are known in all grades combined, with only a single uncirculated note reported that has been unseen since 1965. Six of the known notes are in government hands. This note has a few tiny pinholes and an inconspicuous repair to the right of the vignette. All would disappear completely in the hands of the proper restorer, which would leave the note a very handsome Choice Very Fine example. When we last sold this piece in January of 1998, it realized $7425. On today's market, with far fewer of these rare Type Notes reaching the auction block, we would expect this note to bring just about five figures.

On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder.
