Fr.0282, 1923 $5 SC "Porthole" Sold
# 232
Fr.282, 1923 $5 Silver Certificate. The ever popular "Porthole" note has become quite elusive in Gem, and even high-end circulated grades. To describe this example, one must go beyond merely saying that it is in a high degree of preservation. It undoubtedly has been preserved to maintain its original condition but, beyond that, it surely exceeded the quality of its peers as it came off the printing press. Rare in this grade. A simply wonderful note representing a short-run 20th century series.
