Description
2013 $100 FRN MB00000006G – Single‑Digit Serial #6 – PMG 65EPQ
Rare Early‑Run Fancy Serial Number
This FR‑2188‑B — 2013 Series $100 Federal Reserve Note from the New York District (B‑2) carries the highly desirable single‑digit serial number MB00000006G. As the sixth note printed in the MB–G block, it comes from one of the earliest positions in the run. Single‑digit serial numbers on modern $100 Federal Reserve Notes are extremely scarce, and only a small number remain available to collectors. Because of this, early‑run notes like serial number 6 continue to attract strong interest and long‑term demand.
PMG 65EPQ – Third‑Party Certified Gem Quality
This note is third‑party graded PMG 65EPQ, confirming Gem Uncirculated condition with fully original paper quality. The EPQ designation verifies natural embossing, crisp texture, and untouched surfaces. Its balanced margins and sharp detail give it excellent eye appeal. Collectors value PMG 65EPQ notes for offering Gem‑level presentation while maintaining strong stability in the modern‑currency market.
Early‑Run Provenance
In 2015, USA Rare obtained the first ten notes from this exact pack — serials #1 through #10. These notes were placed into advanced collections across the country. Serial MB00000006G comes directly from that early‑run group, giving it documented provenance that adds to its desirability. Early‑run positions consistently stand out to collectors who focus on low serial numbers and fancy‑serial rarity.
Scarcity and Market Strength
Single‑digit $100s remain one of the most competitive areas in modern currency collecting. PMG‑certified Gem examples are extremely difficult to locate, especially with verified original paper quality. Comparable serial #1 notes in Gem Uncirculated have sold for $18,000–$22,000, showing the strong demand for early‑run positions and the long‑term strength of this category.
A Premium Collector Addition
Serial MB00000006G offers rarity, early‑run significance, and certified originality. It is a standout choice for collectors seeking a premium single‑digit $100 Federal Reserve Note.
