Fine 30PPQ. Fr-1917-F. A solid circulated example of this
very scarce first print run note from the short-lived web press,

1321 1950-C, $5 Federal Reserve Note. PCGS Gem New
66PPQ. Fr-1964-G. This broadly margined Gem from the Chi-
cago district is one of only 5 examples from this bank to receive
the 66PPQ grade to date by PCGS, with only three finer. As the
marketplace finally begins to give small size Federal Reserve
Notes the attention that they' ve long deserved, it is becoming
apparent that there are many grade rarities among many series.
This is likely due in part to them being long-ignored, as even
high grade examples were seldom saved--particularly in any
quantities.
Estimated Value ....................................................... $50 - 75
1322 1969, $5 Federal Reserve Note. PCGS Superb Gem New
67PPQ. Fr-1969-D. This lovely Cleveland $5 is tied for the fin-
est known, with only this note and three others graded at the
67PPQ level by PCGS to date.

65PPQ. Fr-1977-J. This Kansas City Gem is tied for finest
known at PCGS Currency with only one other note graded at the
65PPQ level to date (PMG by comparison has graded two
65EPqs and two 66EPqs).
Estimated Value ..................................................... $75 - 100
1324 1981-A, $5 Federal Reserve Note. PCGS Very Choice
New 64PPQ . Fr-1977-L. The 1981A series has proven to be
one of the scarcest of all "modern" $5 FRN series, with a sur-
prisingly small quantity of high grade notes surviving. This San
Francisco example falls just short of a Gem grade.
Estimated Value ....................................................... $40 - 60
