Description
FR‑1968‑C — 1963A Series Five Dollar Federal Reserve Note from the Philadelphia District, carrying the highly desirable early two‑digit serial number #10. Bearing serial C00000010B, this note was pulled fresh from the very first pack printed, placing it among the earliest survivors of the entire 1963A Philadelphia run.
Certified PMG 64EPQ Choice Uncirculated, this example displays Exceptional Paper Quality, strong embossing, and crisp originality throughout. PMG awarded this note the Star Designation, recognizing its superior eye appeal and above‑average technical quality for the grade. The centering is solid, the detail is sharp, and the paper retains the pack‑fresh look expected from a note stored untouched for decades. Just two sit at this grade level, with just two higher.
Early‑run low‑serial 1963A $5s — especially those from the first pack — are tightly held and seldom offered. Most remain in long‑term collections, making opportunities like this increasingly scarce. For collectors seeking an affordable early serial #10 with premium paper quality and third‑party certification, this is a standout choice.
A clean, original, and highly collectible early‑run $5 with undeniable appeal.
