What Does PMG 70★ Mean?
PMG 70 is the highest numerical grade awarded by Paper Money Guaranty. A note receiving this grade must show no evidence of handling visible under 5× magnification, and its margins and registration must appear centered to the unaided eye.
Notes graded 70 must also qualify for PMG’s Exceptional Paper Quality and Star designations. The Star recognizes exceptional overall eye appeal.
Tranquilitas — The Virtue of Tranquility
The Florida Limited Early Release introduces Tranquilitas, representing peace, serenity, and the quiet strength found in a calm mind. She walks gracefully through the clear coastal waters of Florida, surrounded by the abundant marine life of the Florida Reef.
Fish and sea turtles move through the coral beneath the surface, reflecting Florida’s diverse coastal ecosystem. A ship drifts across the peaceful horizon, honoring the state’s long maritime history and its enduring connection to exploration, commerce, and the sea.
The message woven into the artwork reads:
“Calm Waters, Calm Mind.”
