This is one of a tiny handful of banks where a foresighted officer put back a supply of these early and now sought after notes in the highest grades, to the delight of today's quality conscious collecting community. As the universe of collectors seeking these early notes in the highest quality range has expanded substantially over the past decade, prices have experienced seemingly unstoppable upward pressure, a situation we reasonably expect will continue and likely accelerate. Plan on bidding accordingly for this attractive example that will enhance the standing of whatever collection it enters when the hammer falls tonight. The consequence of timidity for the underbidder will likely be to pay even more when a note of this quality from here is again available.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
