Friedberg 28. 1880 $1 Legal Tender Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Broad margins provide a pleasing frame to this sharply printed Scofield-Gilfillan signed Legal Tender ace. Boldly printed inks bring vivid detail to Ourdans depiction of Columbus as well as to the classic portrait of Washington at center. The red printed serial numbers and large brown spiked Treasury Seal are all deeply inked and sharp. The paper is creamy white and exhibits strictly original surfaces. PMG has graded just four examples of the catalog number at this level with none finer. Legal Tender notes were first issued in 1862 and circulated widely. In 1869 the designs were changed to the popular "Rainbow Note" series with tinted paper and colored inks. These evolved into the later Series of 1874, 1878, and as here, 1880, followed by others through 1923. <em>From Heritages sale of April 2008, lot 15612; our sale of November 2012, lot 4364. </em>
