Re: what have I got her ,any help
I agree, it is a mystery. Even doing an ebay search for sold items shows only one but there's plenty available. It was a graded UNC-60 that was asking $150 and was sold with an unknown best offer.

TPG Major Difference

Looking To Buy - 1973 $1 Prefix ALE
If anyone has a 1973 $1 Lawson/Bouey prefix ALE they are looking to sell, let me know. Preferably AU or better but I will take lower grades as a filler.
Thanks for looking!
