Fr. 86. 1907 $5 Legal Tender Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. Carmi A. Thompson Courtesy Autograph. Serial Number 4.A rarity from the 1910s. This note is not simply another remarkable specimen burdened with uncommon technical and aesthetic qualities, but rather one of the many exceptional entries among the McLaughlin Collection of Napier-Thompson Notes. Featuring a single-digit serial number of "D4," this note holds the distinction of being part of the first sheet (Position D) ever issued for this rarely seen signature combination that was current for only a few months. To demonstrate, less than 100 examples of this signature combination are known to survive while offerings with single-digit serial numbers like this one are painfully infrequent. This is only the second time going back to 1988 that this note has been offered at auction and only the second single-digit example of this Friedberg Number to be offered at auction in the last two decades making this a true opportunity and one likely to go unrepeated in the years after the hammer falls. PMG Pop 3/None Finer.From the McLaughlin Collection of Napier-Thompson Notes.
