This example bears serial number 283 and, like the T1 above, has been enhanced by minor repairs, although they are slightly more noticeable on this example. A few edge splits have been repaired and some folds have been strengthened, yet the repairs were expertly executed and the eye appeal is outstanding overall. Any Montgomery $500 is desirable, and this note from the Kennedy collection is one of the more attractive examples to reach the market in recent years. <B>Very Fine</B></I> with the aforementioned repairs and a couple of minor pinholes, and likely to inspire spirited bidding among Confederate specialists.
