Friedberg 823. 1918 $20 Federal Reserve Bank Note. Atlanta. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. Serial Number 1. Serial number F1A is boldly printed in deep blue inks on the lower left and upper right of this well margined and crisp $20 Federal Reserve Bank Note from the Atlanta District. This variety displays the engraved signatures of Treasury officials Elliott and Burke along with bank officers Bell and Wellborn. Just 47 examples of the catalog number are recorded in the census. This example can be traced back to the legendary collection of Albert A. Grinnell. Broad margins and sharply printed inks are featured on this crisp serial number 1 note. The grading service mentions "Minor Restoration" on the back of the holder. It appears to be limited to the top margin and is deftly executed and takes nothing away from the overall appearance.The Series of 1918 notes have President Grover Clevelands portrait to the far left, to allow room for the imprint of the Federal Reserve Bank and city. The back has two dynamic views of transportation. To the left is a steam locomotive and train racing down the tracks, and to the right is a large passenger steamship at full speed heading out of New York Harbor with the Statue of Liberty in the distance. <em>From Albert A.
