USA (Washington, D.C.), 20 dollars, 12-7-1882, certified PCGS Gem New 65 Apparent - Repaired Tear. Fr-1178, KL-555. Serial C4109139. Beautiful 1882 $20 gold certificate featuring then recently-assassinated President Garfield on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse clutching electric bolts over the ocean, symbolizing the transatlantic telegraph lines of the time. High grade example with a noted small, expert-repaired tear in the top right corner (very hard to see even under magnification) and somewhat light reverse inking, though also featuring a well-centered printing, good margins, sharp sides and edges, and strong embossing visible even though the holder. PCGS #59011821. (Estimate: $7500 - 11000)
