Ch.M5106. Chicago. Corn Exchange NB. $100. Fr.529. 1882 BB. No.B266193/4039 A. Fine. One of 7 tightly held $100 Brown Backs on this Cook County bank. T&P has no record of any auction sales in the past 30 years. Two of the known pieces grade Fine, and this one is free of holes, tears or other major defects. For accuracy, there are three very tiny pinholes and a couple of margin nicks. It does suffer from aged paper but not to the extent of obscuring any features of the note. The Cashier?s signature on the left has faded but the President?s remains barely legible. Expect strong bidding on this scarce national. Estimate US$ 5,000-7,500
