Lot 1944
1880, $10 United States Note. PCGS Gem New 65PPQ. . Fr-111. . KL-377. A lovely Gem Webster $10, with ample margins, bold colors and inks, and original embossing that is easily evident through the PCGS holder. High grade "Jackass" notes (so-called because if the note is turned upside-down, the eagle vignette at the bottom center resembles a donkey) are seldom available in any quantity, and type collectors must often be patient for nice original examples to surface.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000.
