Fr. 2404*. 1928 $50 Gold Certificate Star Note. PMG About Uncirculated 55 EPQ. Just around 40 examples of this rare $50 Gold Certificate replacement note are known to collectors making it a key issue to the small size series. A total of 28 of these star notes have been graded and encapsulated by PMG with the presently offered note being the third finest graded of the bunch. The offered example displays bright paper and broad margins. Gem centering and registration give the note the aesthetic appeal of a much high grade note. The golden colored overprint is vibrant and exceptionally well printed while the engraved design elements are all darkly inked and vividly detailed. The note appears to have avoided any actual circulation with only some light corner handling appearing to account for the technical grade. This is an important small size currency offering in a state of preservation rarely encountered.
