Lot #1720 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Demand Notes - ($ 5,000.00 - $ 8,500.00)
Fr. 1 $5 1861
A very attractive $5 Demand Note that really has only three vertical folds and a corner fold, which would make someone want to call this XF. The centering is generally reasonable and there are never enough of this quality or better to go around. It does have a couple of minor spots that are very tiny.
Grade: PMG VF 25   
Lot #1721 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Demand Notes - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1 $5 1861
Surprisingly nice with bold pen signatures befitting a much higher grade. PCGS' comments about tape repairs, major restorations and repairs, while true, trivialize the pleasing appearance of the earliest issue of paper money.
Grade: Apparent Abt. Good 3   
Lot #1722 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Fr. 19 $1 1874

Grade: XF   
Lot #1723 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 1,750.00)
Fr. 30 $1 1880
A great looking example of the 1880 $1 Legal Tender. I can see no reason this couldn't be graded the same by another service. The even centering is very pleasing.
Grade: CGA Gem UNC 66   
Lot #1724 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 175.00 - $ 250.00)
Fr. 36 $1 1917
A couple of extremely faint bends are untouched, as is the rest of this nearly CU type note. Pieces like this always bring more than sheet.
Grade: Ch. AU   
Lot #1725 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 150.00 - $ 250.00)
Fr. 36 $1 1917
This note has a hard fold and the centering is a bit high.

Grade: PMG UNC 62   
Lot #1729 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Fr. 37 $1 1917 #M3000A

Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ   
Lot #1730 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 37 $1 1917 #M4000A
This is a neat binary low #M4000A that is lovely but must show too much handling for an UNC.
Grade: PMG AU 55 EPQ   
Lot #1731 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 37* $1 1917

Lot #1746 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,750.00 - $ 5,000.00)
Fr. 69 $5 1878
A real peach and one of the finest of the 121 notes reported. I find only one auction record of higher grades than this note, it was a CGA 68. I find no fault with this beauty.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ   
Lot #1747 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 3,500.00)
Fr. 73 $5 1880
Certified as a Gem with the desired PPQ designation and for good reasons: the colors, centering, embossing, and lack of handling meet strict Gem criteria by anyone s standards. These early Woodchoppers with the large seal and blue serials are tremendously rarer than their 1907 counterparts, yet bring very little premium.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ   
Lot #1748 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Fr. 88* $5 1907

Grade: PMG Fine 12   
Lot #1759 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 550.00 - $ 750.00)
Fr. 122 $10 1901
I have seen some slabbed examples like this that are graded as high as Fine 15 but I believe that kind of grading has hurt the prices for this quality.
Grade: Fine   
Lot #1760 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Fr. 147* $20 1880
This issue is very scarce to find in a star. Although it is well used, there are few opportunities to acquire this design as a star.

Lot #1762 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,400.00)
Fr. 221 $1 1886
Wow...this is as beautiful a circ note as you are likely to find. Great color, great centering, great body and the scarcest variety of the series.

Lot #1763 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
Fr. 222 $1 1891

Fr. 224 $1 1896
Great embossing on the seal and serial numbers is readily apparent. No doubt the slightly high back has prevented a far better grade.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1766 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 3,500.00)
Fr. 224 $1 1896
If there is a soft bend lurking somewhere on the note, it is definitely not visible through the holder. The appearance of a Gem, at a fraction of the price. No wonder generations of collectors have sought slider quality, especially on classic designs.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1767 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 850.00 - $ 1,250.00)

Lot #1769 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
Fr. 224 $1 1896
Bright on the front and decently centered overall. A section of the back shows some dirt from having been carried, but I would still anticipate a VF 30 from any of the services. Natural paper quality is also evident.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1770 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Fr. 224 $1 1896

Fr. 229a $1 1899

Fr. 233 $1 1899 #B100000A
Most of the fancy serial numbers in this series are low numbers, making this one, #B100000A, rather unusual. Great overall quality, but a touch tight on the bottom.

Fr. 235* $1 1899

Fr. 238 $1 1923

Lot #1793 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 238 $1 1923
Another note of un-improvable quality; although not slabbed by the previous owner, we suspect that will change in the near future. Whether these two pristine consecutive pieces remain together or get separated to satisfy two different collectors is entirely up to the bidders.

This treasure has been out of the public spotlight for nearly a decade, while the note consecutive to it has surfaced on three occasions. They were no doubt saved together, but this piece shows a faint vertical fold line. We sold its mate, graded PMG 65, in March 2007, for $4,370. The note truly deserves the added "PPQ" qualifier, as the embossing is absolutely cavernous, and original!

The Battleships are a much more difficult series in which to locate stars than the $1 FRBNs. Only six stars are known on this signature combination, with this note coming from a short, four note run that was saved by some farsighted collector many years ago. If you want a $2 FRBN star in UNC, this is your best choice, since the few CUs that do exist in the other districts are far rarer.

This is one of the rarest of all FRBNs and it's totally new to the census. The top is a bit tight but it's unmolested. I would call it VF 20 and I think either service would as well. There were only five serial numbers reported until now. Last year there were two different PMG VF 25s that realized over $7,000 each. This piece could easily reach the same levels but our estimate will be less. A great new discovery from the Series of 1915.

Fr. 823 $20 1918 Atlanta
Nice looking $20 FRBNs are truly rarities and all of the known examples would fill a very small space. There are only 40 serial numbers recorded. This is a quality, problem-free example.

Lot #1886 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Bank Notes - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 5,000.00)

Fr. 826 $20 1915 Kansas City
This is a neat find to come out of the weeds as there were only 27 notes reported in the census. This note has no problems and is evenly circulated. It should be a crowd pleaser.

Lot #1888 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Bank Notes - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 826 $20 1918 Kansas City

Fr. 828 $20 1918 Dallas
This is a very nice looking $20 FRBN from Dallas that is from the 30 serial numbers reported. It's only a couple of numbers away from two of the highest grades known. There are 31 serial numbers reported and this one has excellent color and great centering. I wouldn't be surprised if this note was sold as an XF years back, it's that high quality.
Grade: PMG VF 30   
Lot #1891 - United States Paper Money > Large Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Bank Notes - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)

Fr. 832a $5 1914RS Boston #A60A
A beautiful, low serial #A60A that was graded AU in 1992 and 1999 by two different companies. I can still see a center fold, otherwise not much. It's a beautiful, well-centered note.

Fr. 834b $5 1914RS Philadelphia
Although more available than the type 'c', this type 'b' note is still elusive in uncirculated condition. Just two CU examples have sold at auction since 2001, both last year. The first was the Tom Flynn specimen in exactly the same grade, which sold for $8,625. Then, five months later, a PMG 63 brought a still healthy $4,600. A beautiful note with great centering.

The Richmond district falls right into place in rarity, finding itself #4 in the ranking for $20 stars, just as it was for the $10s. This Burke-McAdoo is one tough puppy, though. Just two stars have been found, with the other Fine 12 selling for $2,195 in 2006. Today, this damage-free example should bring as much or more.

Affordable elegance best summarizes this specimen, which will prove to be an excellent value in the current market. The gold underprint and red Treasury seal remain radiant, but the back is significantly muted. The upper margin is trimmed rather tight resulting in a net grade. Scattered pinholes and a 2.5 mm split are so insignificant that the graders didn t find them worthy of mention. The back is not especially attractive, but the front fully appears a couple grades higher and would display beautifully. Only 20 pieces are available to collectors.

The last time collectors had a shot at a large note on the First National Bank of Hugo was when this very note was auctioned in 2000. It brought nearly $2,000 then, and it is worth no less now. The top and bottom margins are tight and there is a small chip out of the bottom edge. Purple stamped signatures were applied, although the cashier's signature is a trifle weak.

Hugo, NB, W10786
By far the rarest of the two Hugo banks. This institution was in business for just twelve years, during which time it issued 1,942 sheets of $5 and $10 Plainbacks only. Of those 7,768 notes, a mere two pieces remain today. The other note, a serial #2, appeared in the Currency Auctions of America inaugural sale of 1990. At that time the note was considered to be unique. This note was a new find when I offered it in my 1998 Memphis sale and it reappeared a few years later in May 2001. It is the better of the two recorded examples, and sports lovely, two color signatures. The bright paper and vibrant colors make this note a knockout piece.

Bath, Lincoln NB, N761
This early bank was named for Enoch Lincoln, the sixth governor of Maine and an important figure in Maine history, and not for the eponymous 16th president of the United States. It was a large bank that liquidated in 1910, and 20 of its notes are currently reported, including two Red Seals, of which this is the sole $10 example.

Loup City, First NB, W7277
A great discovery note from a town that had three National Banks. One bank is unreported and this is the discovery large size from the middle bank, while the later one issued only small size. This bank issued just 1,533 sheets of large size and 2,000 sheets is usually low enough to consider a note remaining unique. It's signed by W.F. Mason, President and S. Hauser, Cashier. Only one of the two small size notes have ever appeared at auction. A great Nebraska rarity from Sherman County.

Lake Arthur, Territory of New Mexico, First NB, W8584
A newly discovered Territorial Red Seal which brings the population of known examples from this one bank community to three: two Red Seals and one Blue Seal Dateback, all of which are Territorial issues. This note owes its survival to the family of this bank's cashier, W.J.M. Jones, who saved this note along with another from a bank where Mr. Jones served as vice president, which can be found in this sale's Texas offering. This piece is an evenly-circulated and problem-free Fine example, with excellent color for the grade. With the Irish specimen in a prominent New Mexico assemblage and the Latimer example now ensconced in a major long-term holding, the offering of this specimen many offer the last opportunity for many years for collectors to obtain any Lake Arthur note.

A note with everything going for it. Foremost, a Territorial issue which long predates the admittance of New Mexico into the Union. This is an important fiscal relic from the great Western frontier, replete with gunslingers, bawdy houses and swinging door saloons. One of the great misplaced town names; although Las Vegas is generally associated with Nevada, here is one from another location. Although most of the price values in the 6th Edition of Kelly have been chopped from previous editions, Territorials continue to hold their own, where this carries a value of $10,000.

Tiffin, NB, 3315
Tiffin is the seat of Seneca County and was founded in 1821, named for Edward Tiffin, Ohio's first governor. Tiffin's location on both banks of the Sandusky River and near three major rail lines brought people through the town regularly, as well as giving the town an outlet for its iron and agricultural products. By 1888, Tiffin was home to six newspapers, 14 churches and two banks. Tiffin was also the home of the Tiffin Glass Company. Pretty much a type note, but at least it has a cute layout.

This has always been one of my favorite bank titles and it's by far the favorite type it was used on. They printed 1,611 $100 Type 2s from this location. There are seven singles and an uncut sheet, that's right, serial #1 through #6. This note will be more reasonable. In November 2007 we sold a nice VF at around $2,200. The bottom margin on this example is closer and it's a bit lower grade than the November 2007 lot.

This is one of the great Wisconsin locations. The bank was chartered in 1864 and issued First Charters and a few $5 Brownbacks before it was liquidated in 1890. Five notes are known, but more importantly, only two $1 notes have been offered in the last several decades. This $5 is actually fairly nice, and would have graded Fine but for a couple of worn folds. W.E. Smith was the president, but I can't tell who the cashier was.

There are only 12 large notes reported from this location, and this is one of the two Red Seals. This note brought $43,700 in a heated battle among collectors at our initial sale in our new facility in Lenexa. Now we get a second chance to make another collector happy with this jewel. A nice, evenly-circulated note that has clear signatures that may be stamped.

Douglas, NB, 8087
This lovely Douglas note came right along with the Cheyenne. We sold a very similar note in March 2007 for $3,200. This example may be even nicer.

Laramie, First NB, W4989
This well-circulated note has some issues that you would expect for the grade, but it is the only 1882 $10 Dateback recorded on the bank. The strong pen signatures seem unaffected by the use.

Lovell, First NB, 10844
This note popped up a few years ago and it was soon buried in this magnificent state set. I am not sure how you could ever get a better Wyoming note than this lovely #2 $50. Certainly a highlight of any sale, and this sale certainly has some very fresh Wyoming notes.

This was the third note in the little Wyoming trifecta we got. It has a spot in the top margin but is very attractive and fresh.

Sheridan, First NB, 4604
This note has the look of a Fine until held to the light and you see that much of the right side is painted in. The signatures are faded as well.
