1862 $2 Legal Tender (Fr. 41)

This VF example offers notably strong eye appeal for the type, with deep black engraving, vivid green underprints, and a bright red seal and serials that really pop. Paper displays good body and clean, original-looking surfaces with bold manuscript signatures and sharp detail throughout. The margins are balanced and fully present, giving the face a well-framed look. The reverse is especially attractive, showing a rich, even emerald hue with crisp detail. Three vertical folds limit the grade, but the inks and overall presentation remain unusually vibrant for a circulated specimen.
