1934 $500 Federal Reserve Note (Fr. 2201b)

Choice VF with notably strong ink contrast and the dark green back still punchy. The face shows balanced margins, bright serials, and pleasingly even color, with a central fold and a few lighter vertical handling lines that don’t interrupt the devices. Paper remains sound and well-structured, exhibiting honest circulation and light toning. Edges are clean with no distracting marks or annotations visible. A handsome, problem-free example with solid eye appeal for the grade.
