Friedberg 324c (W-2922). 1878 $50 Silver Certificate of Deposit. PCGS Currency Very Fine 30.This is one of only two privately held examples of the 1878 $50 Silver Certificate of Deposit for all catalog numbers combined. Both happen to be of the Fr.324c (W-2922) variety; this note has serial number A18657 and a lesser grade example bears serial number A40814. These Certificates of Deposit were payable in silver dollars at Washington D.C. Orator and statesman Edward Everett is portrayed at right. A red Treasury Seal is seen at top center while a red FIFTY protector is centered below. This "Triple Signature" note has the engraved signatures of Scofield and Gilfillan stacked at right while a large engraved signature of Assistant U.S. Treasurer A.U. Wyman is to the left. The back is printed in black and features SILVER spelled out prominently inside of connecting decorative panels at center. The type is printed on blue tinted security paper.<p><p>From the Whitman <em>Encyclopedia:</em><p>The Series of 1878 $50 notes are specifically designated "CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT" on the face, "SILVER CERTIFICATE" on the back. These bear two printed Treasury signatures plus the printed or, in some instances, hand-signed countersignature of another Treasury official. Of the multiple varieties in this series, fewer than 10 of these notes are known to exist. Details are scarce regarding the style of countersignature application. All have a large red Treasury seal at top center and "FIFTY" in ornate pink letters at the lower center. On this seal, for this denomination and other countersigned notes in this series, the <em>key faces to the right (with the handle at the left).</em> Printed on blue-tinted paper (Willcox patent of 1866). On the back, the word "SILVER" in shingle-style joined vignettes.<p><p>This example displays moderate circulation and is mostly bright and free of any distracting marks. The engraved design elements are all boldly inked and well detailed though the red overprint inks have faded a bit. The grading service makes mention of restoration which appears limited to the margins. The A40814 example, graded Very Good 10 by PCGS Currency with restorations cited, sold in our August 2014 ANA auction for $329,000. This note is superior.<p><p>More on Edward Everett<p>Edward Everett is best remembered as an orator from Massachusetts, although he held a number of political offices. It was Everett who, at the dedication of the Gettysburg National Battlefield in 1863, gave a two-hour speech before Lincoln made his Gettysburg Address, which the president said would be little remembered. It became a classic, of course, while what Everett had to say is unknown except to the most dedicated student of Civil War trivia. It was Everett in the late 1850s who took the lead in the restoration of Mount Vernon and gave over 200 speeches in this regard.<p><p><strong>PCGS Population: </strong>1, none finer.<em>From Federal Brand Enterprises sale of January 1963, lot 821; Spink Americas sale of May 1995, lot 351. </em>
