$50 1929-II Birmingham National Bank Birmingham, MI Serial #50 ULTRA-RARE 6 Known VF

This pleasing mid-grade example of this very scarce type and denomination is one of only eleven Type 2 $50s reported for all Michigan banks, according to the National Currency Foundation census. 

Adding to the allure of this trophy, it is new to the census and bears an exciting serial #50 on a $50 denomination. There are only six others reported from this bank and denom combo, with a previous ungraded example selling for just shy of $5k ($4830) nearly two decades ago. There aren't many opportunities to acquire this note; therefore, congratulations to the collector that doesn't hesitate and secures this exceptional Birmingham, MI example.
