One of the toughest complete collections is the Large size Block collection set.

It took over two years, but all blocks in the highest PMG grade are now completed. This is a rarity for any collection. This collection contains 14 notes but there are only 10 FR numbers within the 1899 $2's. There are 4 FR numbers that have two blocks.

What is great about this collection is each and every note is the top of the population numbers. Several are POP 1.

Also, the 257 only being a GEM 66 is pop1 and none finer.

The FR 238 "R" block is a GEM 65 and this is also a pop 1 none finer.

The 257 and 258 "R" block are extremely rare in high grade.

You can view only 10 of these notes on the PMG website because the system will not accept the additional block notes that are in the collection.
