VERY FINE EXAMPLE OF THE 30-CENT 1875 CONTINENTAL BANK NOTE COMPANY SPECIAL PRINTING.

Many examples of the Continental Bank Note special printings were separated by scissors, and so are often found with perforations partly missing or entirely trimmed away. Our census records for Scott 176 contain 52 copies. Of these, only three or four have perforations on all four sides.

Census no. 176-UNC-06. Ex Hetherington. With 1957 and 2016 P.F. certificates
