Friedberg 41. 1862 $2 Legal Tender Note. PMG Gem Uncirculated 66 EPQ. Here is an incredible example of our nations first federal $2 design type. This remarkable note is tied with two others for finest graded by PMG. It is fully and evenly framed and the plate impression is vividly detailed and presented in vivid inks. Vibrant green tints are featured in decorative devices at the lower left and lower right. The overprint is bold red and deeply impressed into the crisp creamy white paper. Sharp details are seen the brilliant red spiked Treasury Seal featured just to the right of center. The intricate green printed back is observed in exceptional detail and is also ideally centered. This is an important design type as it is the inaugural $2 bill. Moreover it is among the finest examples known of the type. The grading service has added a comment for "Great Embossing" on the back of the holder. This is a true trophy note and one that we expect will be hotly pursued by our bidding audience.The first $2 bills are Legal Tender Notes, part of the "greenback" issues launched in 1862. The face, back, and tint plates were engraved by the National Bank Note Company. Printing was shared by both the American and National Bank Note companies. Treasury signatures of Chittenden and Spinner were printed on the face by using a separate plate and a special ink.On the face is the portrait of Alexander Hamilton, engraved by Joseph P. Ourdan. Two imprint versions of the American and National Bank Note companies are found. Similar to the $1 notes of this series, at the bottom center is a 1-2-3 design, with the particular denomination to be highlighted with a drop-out white background, in this case a 2 (the $3 was considered, and it was featured, but none were ever printed). All have a small red Treasury Seal with spiked border (applied by the National Currency Bureau in Washington). There are two patent imprints, 1860 at lower left and 1857 at center right, the latter referring to an American Bank Note Company patent for the green color, intended to deter counterfeiting.The back is printed in green and has the denomination and redemption information. The last is the so-called Second Obligation: "This note is a Legal Tender for all debts public and private, except for duties on imports and interest on the public debt, and is receivable in payment of all loans made to the United States." <em>From Lyn Knights sale of November 1997, lot 418; Heritages sale of April 2009, lot 14375. </em>
