Description: *PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH ANY SPECIAL REQUESTS* $50 1869 Legal Tender Description of the note this reproduction replicates: Beautiful Rainbow $50 Fr. 151 $50 1869 Legal Tender Only a grand total of 70 examples of the Rainbow $50 are enumerated in the Track & Price Census. A dozen of those notes are either locked away in museums or Federal Reserve Banks. Track & Price lists only six notes graded higher than the beautiful Fr. 151 in this lot. In fact, our archives show that we have offered only a single Fr. 151 third party graded note higher and none equal. Our one higher offering was a PCGS 58PPQ and it realized $176,250 in January 2013. This is only the second time that the current note with serial number Y405621 has been offered at auction since the August 1983 ANA. The other appearance occurred in April 2016 at our Central States auction and the price realized was $223,250. It has been owned by our consignor since then and his name can be added to the illustrious provenance this note possesses. Previous owners of this note were famed paper money collectors/dealers George Blake, William A. Philpott, and Bob Medlar. It is a plate letter A example with three wide margins and excellent red and blue color on the face, while the green ink on the back is ideal. The face has at left a vignette of Return to Peace where Peace is holding a small statue of Mercury in her left hand and a portrait of Kentucky statesman Henry Clay at right. It is a beautiful Rainbow $50 that is certainly worth stretching for. *PLEASE BE AWARE THESE BANKNOTES ARE REPRODUCTIONS* Reproduction of a High value note. An authentic note that this note replicates sold for thousands GBP and was in way worse condition. This note is unattainable for most but this reproduction is the next best thing available which is perfect to display in your home or add to your binder etc. All of these notes go under digital restoration of some kind. Some go under major restoration. Some notes are also built from seperate proofs, That makes these repros the only way to receive these notes on one single sheet. All this makes these reproductions even more special. *PLEASE BE AWARE THESE BANKNOTES ARE REPRODUCTIONS* I HAVE WORKED IN THE GRAPHIC DESIGN INDUSTRY IN THE PAST AND SO HAVE USED THESE SKILLS TO RECREATE THESE BANKNOTE TEMPLATES TO THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE STANDARDS AVAILABLE. I USE A HIGH QUALITY PRINTER/INK THAT I FORTUNATELY STILL HOLD FROM WHEN I WAS IN THE GRAPHIC DESIGN INDUSTRY THAT I HAVE NOW ADAPTED FOR THIS PURPOSE. I HAVE ACCESS TO MULTIPLE DATABASES ACROSS THE WEB AND HAVE HIGH QUALITY SCANS OF A LOT OF THESE BANKNOTES MYSELF BUT PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I ALWAYS FIND THE BEST PHOTO/SCAN AVAILABLE TO ME AND SOME OF THESE NOTES ARE SO RARE THAT NOT ALL WILL HAVE PERFECT HIGH RESOLUTION SCANS AVAILABLE. I HAVE USED MY GRAPHIC DESIGN SKILLS TO BUILD SOME OF THESE NOTES FROM SCRATCH. SOME OF THESE BANKNOTES WE KNOW EXIST BUT THERE ARE NO PHOTOS/SCANS LEFT, SO I HAVE BUILT THEM FROM WHAT IS AVAILABLE E.G. SPECIMENS, SIMILAR BANKNOTES AND OTHER DENOMINATIONS. I TOUCH UP ALL OF THE NOTES TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY WITH THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO ME. BY TRYING TO BRIGHTEN THEM UP, HIGHLIGHT THE COLOURS AND REMOVE ALL THE RIPS AND TEARS PLEASE BE AWARE WHEN I SAY UNC I MEAN THESE NOTES ARE NOT CIRCULATED AS SUCH BUT SOME OF THESE NOTES, THE ONLY SCAN/PHOTOS IN EXISTENCE ARE CIRCULATED SO THE SCANS/PHOTOS WILL OBVIOUSLY REFLECT THIS.
