Fr. 1330. 50 Cent. Third Issue. PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ.A gorgeous example of the extremely rare, hand-signed Allison-New variety. Terrific color on both sides, bright bronzing and excellent original paper surfaces. This note is signed by John Allison as Register and John New as Treasurer. They served in office together from June 30th, 1875 to January 7th, 1876, long after the discontinuance of the Third issued notes. It is believed these notes were never intended to be signed and issued for circulation but because they were legal signers the notes became legal tender. Most of the small amount of notes known are Uncirculated, but this is by far the nicest we have ever offered.
