Fr‑1988‑J — 2001 Series Five Dollar Federal Reserve Note from the Kansas City District, serial CJ44331241A.
This is the first‑generation “Big Head” Next‑Generation $5 FRN, produced only across the 2001, 2003, and 2003A series before the redesign shifted to the purple‑tinted 2006 issue. These early notes mark a short transitional era, and dramatic errors from this period have become increasingly elusive.
Graded PCGS 67PPQ Superb Gem Uncirculated, this example offers premium paper quality, broad margins, excellent centering, and strong embossing — the kind of high‑end technical quality missing from most collections of the new‑series fives. With BEP quality control at its highest levels today, modern (2017 and later) $5s have produced zero overprint‑on‑back errors, making earlier generations all the more desirable.
A superbly preserved, very high-grade example — one of the finest known for this series and a standout opportunity for collectors of modern high‑grade errors.
