Fr. 231. 1899 $1 Silver Certificate. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. Carmi A. Thompson Courtesy Autograph. Serial Number 70.Burdened only with premium qualities. This note has rightly earned its laurels from PMG. From original qualities manifested by bold and lively colors to a level of technical quality that seems out of place for something produced over 110 years ago, this leaves little doubt that this note is truly a premium specimen. Yet other considerations must also be noted. Distinctions such as the two-digit serial number of "D70D" and the short-lived Napier - Thompson signature combination seen alongside Thompsons penned Courtesy Autograph serve to uphold this note far and above a "generic" example of this long-lived design at this grade level.From the McLaughlin Collection of Napier-Thompson Notes.
