Lot of (2) Bowling Green, Kentucky. Peoples Bank of Kentucky. 18xx $5. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 to Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Front & Back Proofs.(KY-25-G38a). No. None. Plate A. Imprint of Danforth, Wright & Co. (Philadelphia & New York) at right along the bottom margin. A nearly superb color face paired with its matching back, forming a lovely set. The Cyrus Durand dies used on the face are exceptionally expressive and rife with pleasing eye appeal. Like other proofs from this series, a full rose tint crosses the note with a deeper red protector. The color back falls short of gem due to it being stacked within the archive book long ago and exhibits some "ghosting" as a result. These are the first proofs from this series we have offered in several years at auction.
