1896 $1.00. AU.

1896 $1.00. XF.
Fr# 224. Terrific color and very gently pressed to retain superior eye-appeal. A tiny rust spot appears beneath the Treasurer's signature, and the reverse has sprinkles of additional tobacco-brown...

1896 $1.00. AU.
Fr# 224. Good, crisp bright paper with beautiful ink for this popular educational note. The top margin is very skinny, and the corner at the right displays a small fold, but the note still looks...
39The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$750.00
1896 $1.00. XF.
Fr-224. A nicer circulated educational note that is accurately centered and rather well preserved for the XF grade. Ink is still deep and fairly vivid despite appreciable toning of the paper.

1896 $1.00. CU.
Fr-225. Deep embossing, and overall outstanding originality is on display along with pleasing centering. In fact, many would likely comment that we are being too conservative with our grading. But,...

1896 $1.00. CU.

1896 $1.00. CU.
Fr-224. Nearly brilliant paper with beautiful color and straight margins. Corners are excellent except for the upper left corner, which is slightly stained and rubbed, or else this would be a fully...

1896 $1.00. CGA CHCU-64.
Fr-224. A thin border on the right side may be all that prevented a fully gem assessment by CGA, because otherwise, this is a note with outstanding eye appeal. Bright and razor sharp, with vivid...

1896 $1.00. AU/CU.
Fr-225. Pleasing Educational ace with two vertical bends, one just left of center and the other just right of center. They are not creases, just light wavy bends in the paper, and it is probably...

1896 $1.00. PMG AU-55.

1896 $1.00. PMG CHCU-63.
Fr-224. Well-centered Educational Ace with broad margins, great color, and an exceptional look. As mentioned on the holder, there is small margin tear, but it is almost indiscernible.

143The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$915.00
1896 $1.00. XF.
Fr-225. So, so close to being AU. In fact, some astute collectors will likely consider this note AU. A dark, rich ink presence graces the crisp, original paper. It is a little off-centered, but...
