1934 $500 Green Seal FRN XF45 PPQ PCGS

Graded XF45 PPQ (Extremely Fine 45, Premium Paper Quality) by PCGS, this note retains strong eye appeal, sharp details, and minimal signs of circulation, making it a superb addition to any high-denomination currency collection. Discontinued in 1969 due to their limited use and concerns over money laundering, $500 bills have become increasingly scarce, particularly in high grades. The PPQ designation signifies that the note maintains its original paper quality, free from restorations or alterations, ensuring superior condition and collectability.
