Fr. 224. 1896 $1 Silver Certificate. PMG About Uncirculated 55.

Fr. 224. 1896 $1 Silver Certificate. PMG About Uncirculated 55. A resounding testament to the enduring popularity of Silver Certificates issued under Series of 1896. This lightly handled $1 offers much that can be appreciated by the discerning collector despite a stint in commercial channels. Here the all-important vignette known as History Instructing Youth reflects a level of detail often lost to circulation while the engraved detail endemic to the background of the vignette speaks to a near-obsessive level of attention that seemingly represents a common thread for this iconic series imprint. In all, this example is one where the numerical grade is arguably secondary when held against a number of considerations that collectively speak to the enduring popularity of this design that has long been a favorite of collectors. Estimate: $2,000 - $3,000. Click here for certification details from PMG.
