  • Star Note Rarity: The asterisk beside the serial number indicates this is a Star Note, much sought after by collectors for their relative scarcity. Star Notes were printed to replace notes damaged or flawed during production, making them rarer than standard issues.
  • Wide Face Variety: This note features the "Wide Face" variety, a subtle yet significant detail for collectors where the portrait of Lincoln appears slightly broader due to the placement of the vignette during printing. This variation adds a layer of uniqueness to your collection.
  • Condition: Graded Very Fine 20 by PCGS, this note shows signs of circulation but retains much of its original detail, with Lincoln's portrait still clear and the colors vibrant. The note has been handled but with care, preserving its historical essence.
  • Historical Significance: Issued during the Great Depression, these notes reflect a pivotal time in American history when the nation was transitioning away from gold redemption for currency. This piece of history encapsulates the economic climate of the 1930s, offering insights into the financial strategies of the time.
  • Certification: The authentication and grading by PCGS ensure that you are investing in a note of verified quality and authenticity, providing peace of mind for both collectors and investors.
