Description
FR‑1187 • 1922 $20 GOLD CERTIFICATE • PMG 35EPQ
Offered here is a bright, original, and problem‑free example of the 1922 $20 Gold Certificate, cataloged as FR‑1187, carrying serial K78549089✱. Graded PMG 35EPQ, this note sits just one point below Extra Fine, and the EPQ designation confirms fully original paper, no pressing, and no conservation. These mid‑grade EPQ twenties are getting noticeably tougher, especially with strong color and clean surfaces.
The orange back is bold and vibrant, exactly what collectors want from a premium circulated Gold Certificate. Paper quality is excellent — crisp, bright, and fully original. This note was clearly pulled from honest circulation with no issues, showing only the expected light folds for the grade and nothing distracting.
🔥 WHY THIS PMG 35EPQ FR‑1187 STANDS OUT
- PMG 35EPQ — Choice Very Fine Plus with Exceptional Paper Quality
- Just one point from XF, but with EPQ originality that many XF notes lack
- Bright orange back with strong saturation
- Full original paper, no repairs, no stains, no problems
- Clean circulated example, exactly what collectors want in this grade
- High eye appeal for a mid‑grade Gold Certificate
