Friedberg 312. 1880 $20 Silver Certificate of Deposit. PMG Very Fine 30. Just 35 examples of this scarce Bruce-Wyman signed small red seal variety Series of 1880 $20 Silver Certificates are known. The catalog number is more than four times rarer than the more commonly encountered Fr.311. This moderately circulated note comes well margined and boldly printed. The Treasury Seal just to the left of bottom center is bright cherry red in color and free from fading or bleed through. The serial numbers are boldly printed in deep blue inks as well. None of the folds that account for the grade are particularly hard nor do they break the consistency of the printed design. The black printed back is well centered and vividly detailed. PMG has graded just a single example of the catalog number finer, with that note being Very Fine 35. <em>From Currency Auctions of Americas sale of January 1996, lot 1526; Heritages sale of April 2008, lot 15906; Lyn Knights sale of June 2011, lot 1110. </em>
