Even a brief inspection of this note finds everything about it that is tops in the grade class, from vibrant color to the deep saturated embossing, plus eye catching pristine surfaces. Both sides approach perfection with nice margins all around. The back design might be a tad high, but every detail gives the collector a thrill. Rare to find this such a high grade note!
