Incredible Fr. 1280 Block of Eleven Notes Fr. 1280. 25 Cents. First Issue. PMG About Uncirculated 55 EPQ. Block of Eleven. Perforated, Without Monogram. Uncut block of eleven. A difficult catalog number as just an individual example and rarely seen in strips or blocks. As these were perforated, the storage of any uncut examples usually led to folding and then some seperation. This is a magnificent exception as all the perforations remain intact without splits. This is formerly part of the Frederick R. Mayer collection where it sold for $7,187 in a 2007 sale also it was within the Milt Friedberg Sale, 1997, Lot 498. Previously Lot 2024 from Bowers & Ruddy's Russell sale, June 20, 1977. The notes are all extremely bright and the originality is unmistakable looking through the holder. A true trophy piece for any fractional currency collection.
