1914 $100 Federal Reserve Note S/N F363646A
PCGS Gem New 66PPQ

Fr. #1104. S/N F363646A. Burke/McAdoo. This is the first note that featured Benjamin Franklin as the central vignette, but not the last. Franklin appears on the $10 National Bank Note, the 1874 $50 Legal Tender Note, the 1879 $10 Refunding Certificate, and, of course, the Franklin half dollar coins just to name a few. What makes this note so neat is the reverse artistry which features the allegorical figures of Labor, Plenty, America, Peace and Commerce. The original image was engraved in steel by G.F.C. Smillie and the uniqueness in the clean, crisp lines of the medium were not lost in the transfer to this note. Spectacular and so noted by its inclusion in the "100 Greatest American Currency Notes" as number 34!
