Fr. 1657*. 1953B $5 Silver Certificate Star Note. PMG About Uncirculated 50.In the early 1960s this final silver certificate series was released, although few of these stars seemed to make it into circulation. Before long, silver certificates were discontinued and thus a modern-day rarity was born. A really pretty example with boardwalk margins, bold printing quality, and dazzling blue inks. When one considers that half-decent Very Fines land around the $1,000 mark and that the few CU pieces that materialize bring several thousand dollars, a pleasing AU note packs a lot of punch for the grade.
