Fr. 1225h. 1900 $10,000 Gold Certificate. PCGS Currency Choice New 63. Hole Punch Cancelled.These notes survive due to a fire at the Washington D.C. post office where they were being stored on December 13, 1935. In an effort to rid the fire of fuel to burn, papers were tossed from windows with these $10,000 Gold Certificates raining down with them. The presently offered example, which displays the Teehee-Burke signature combination, comes fully framed and well printed. Some minor stains and foxing are seen and the note is punch cancelled at the left end as so many of this type are.
