I thought this was a nice looking, well-centered note at a good price. 10 cents, 3rd issue, Fr#1256.

Beautiful note!
I think we need to change the title of this thread to "I have a lot of nice Fractionals"

@hokie!! Wow!!! Shouldn't you be collecting classic comms  ? While all are beautiful my favorite is the 5 cent red backed Clark! Although the Spinner is pretty nice also!

Thanks, hfjacinto! I also found that Clark note quite attractive; I have a green back, but I thought the red back just stands out. And speaking of classic commemoratives... I will have a few upgrades to post early next week!

By the way, you may notice on the right margin on the back of the Justice note what, at first glance, looks like an ink smudge (that's what I initially thought from the seller's photos which weren't very high resolution). In fact, I almost passed on the note because of that.
However, in hand I could see it appeared to be a bit of the margin from the front of a note. That didn't make a whole lot of sense to me, but I posted this on the paper money forum and was informed this was an offset transfer of a front note. I found that pretty interesting!
