second finest for the catalog number. It is beautifully centered with robust
margins at all sides providing an excellent frame for the powerful design. Deep
green overprints are seen with a large amount of original embossing evident
through the holder. The note is offered as lot #10401 and carries an estimate
of $125,000-$175,000.
