Description
FR‑303 — 1908 Series Ten Dollar Silver Certificate, widely known as the iconic “Tombstone Note”, featuring the memorial portrait of Hugh McCulloch framed within the distinctive tombstone‑shaped vignette. This example carries serial B294215, originating from the third note on the sheet of four, a detail appreciated by specialists who track plate positions and sheet layouts.
Certified PMG 30 Very Fine, this note presents as a clean, attractive mid‑grade example with strong eye appeal for the issue. PMG notes a closed pinhole, a common and minor comment for circulated Tombstones, but the paper remains solid, original, and well‑preserved for the grade. The overall look is VF/XF, with pleasing color, bold design elements, and no distracting problems.
Signed by Vernon and McClung, this late‑issue 1908 Silver Certificate remains one of the most popular large‑size type notes due to its dramatic portrait frame and historical significance. Mid‑grade certified examples continue to be in demand, offering an excellent balance of affordability and collectability.
A handsome, problem‑free (aside from the small closed pinhole) representative of one of America’s most recognizable large‑size designs.
