Lot #788 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,250.00)
CT-160 Uncancelled 5s May 10, 1770
This is a real wonder note that will prove to be a nice addition to anyone's advanced Colonial currency collection. Newman lists this at $1,000 in Fine with no higher grade indicated. This lovely note is uncancelled making it all the more rare in this state. A wonderfully printed and well signed example that has the look of a fully note but with PCGS mentioning a restoration of center split. When rarity and condition come together like this it has a synergistic effect on a note's value as we will likely see tonight.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30

Lot #789 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
CT-166 10s Uncancelled October 10, 1771
A truly rare note in this state of preservation as it is quite a challenge to ever find a high grade example that is also uncancelled such as this one. PCGS notes a repaired center split but the red signatures remain bold and the eye appeal is tremendous for any note from this series. Newman lists this at $1,000 in Very Fine and that really might not be too far off from reality.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Very Fine 25

Lot #790 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 200.00 - $ 300.00)
CT-179 Slash Cancelled 2s6d May 10, 1775
An incredibly well embossed, bright and crackling fresh example. The May 1775 issue is much scarcer than the plethora of 1776 and 1780 notes that are floating around in the marketplace. Newman prices this at around $250 in Very Fine with no higher value.

Lot #791 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 450.00)
CT-182 40s Contemporary Counterfeit May 10, 1775
A boldly signed and very well detailed example of this tougher Connecticut issue that has some center split restoration but which is uncancelled. If this were an authentic example it would likely be a four figure item in this grade.
Grade: PCGS Apparent About New 55

Lot #792 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
CT-182 Uncancelled 40s May 10, 1775
An incredibly well signed, boldly printed and wonderfully embossed example that is typical of many notes that were found in the voluminous Midnight Ride collection. The note is uncancelled making it all the more rare in this state of preservation and the handling is minimal. Newman lists this at $400 in Very Fine with nothing listed higher.
Grade: PMG AU 50 EPQ

Lot #793 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 350.00 - $ 550.00)
CT-184 Uncancelled 6s June 1, 1775
In terms of eye appeal this uncancelled piece is as nice as any Gem we have seen. Boldly signed with three intact red signatures and with mountainous embossing visible everywhere. The depth of printing ink on this note makes it a wondrous piece of eye candy to show your friends. Newman lists this at $350 in EF with no value given for Unc.
Grade: PCGS Choice AU 55 PPQ

Lot #794 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CT-191 Uncancelled 10s July 1, 1775
A well embossed and boldly printed example of this scarce Connecticut note that is rarely seen uncancelled. PMG notes about tears which are minimal and well hidden. Newman values this issue at $600 in VF with no higher value given.
Grade: PMG Choice EF 45

Lot #795 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
CT-192 20s Uncancelled July 1, 1775
Huge margins and superb embossing are seen on this boldly printed Connecticut note. This note has retained its bold signatures and Newman values this at $600 in Very Fine with nothing higher listed.
Grade: Gem CU

Lot #796 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 1,050.00 - $ 1,550.00)
CT-205 Uncancelled 6d June 19, 1776
Snow white paper offers great contrast to the bold, black inks of this delightful note. Incredible embossing is duly noted by this cataloger. The upper left margin strays just a hair too close otherwise we are quite certain that the Superb Gem grade would have been assigned. Newman lists this at $800 in Ch. CU with no higher value given.
Grade: PMG Gem CU 65 EPQ

Lot #797 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 350.00)
CT-217 Uncancelled 5d October 11, 1777
Uncancelled examples from this small change issue are actually quite scarcer than their 1776 predecessors. Couple that with the note being printed on white paper and you really have quite an item. The price guides list uncancelled, white paper notes at double the value of those printed on the typical blue paper. Newman values this denomination at $300 in XF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS AU 53

Lot #798 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 200.00 - $ 300.00)
CT-218 Slash Cancelled 7d October 11, 1777
Huge margins and exceptional centering are found on this boldly signed and wonderfully printed small change note. A diagonal slash cancel is noted.
Grade: PMG Choice CU 64 EPQ

Lot #799 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 150.00 - $ 250.00)
CT-231 Slash Cancelled 20s June 1, 1780
Through the holder this note looks like a screaming Gem and we're not entirely sure it isn't. The paper is brighter than sunshine with superb printing and great signatures. We see a miniscule bump or two on the corners but nothing that really amounts to much. Notes from these 1780 issues without the typically seen hole cancel are much scarcer and more valuable. Do not expect to see a typical AU price for this premium, original example.
Grade: PCGS Choice AU 58 PPQ

Lot #800 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 225.00 - $ 325.00)
CT-239 Slash Cancelled 20s July 1, 1780
An impressive example from this final issue that is slash cancelled rather than having the ubiquitous hole cancel. The margins, centering and eye appeal are that of a Gem and with plenty of embossing visible we are not sure what limited the grade. Newman lists this at $200 in Choice CU with no higher grade given.
Grade: PMG Choice CU 64

Lot #801 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 225.00 - $ 325.00)
DE-44 20s May 1, 1756
A rare early Ben Franklin note that remains well signed with PMG noting that two pieces are contemporarily pinned together. All Benjamin Franklin printed notes are highly desirable since they were printed by one of our most famous Colonial figures. Newman lists this at $750 in Very Good with no other values given.
Grade: PMG Net Good 4

Lot #802 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
DE-59 15s March 1, 1758
A very satisfying example of this popular Ben Franklin issue where you can clearly see "Printed by B. Franklin and D. Hall" on the back. PCGS has noted restorations which are primarily seen at the center fold. For some reason most examples of this issue that appear are of the 20s variety so this could be a golden opportunity to fill a hole in your type collection of Colonial notes. Newman lists this at $1,000 in Fine.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 12

Lot #803 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 1,750.00)
DE-74 18d January 1, 1776
We are not sure what the heck in this world it takes to warrant a superb gem grade on a Colonial note but this example certainly seems to have earned it. It has been blessed with gigantic margins, perfect centering, great signatures and wonderful print quality. For anybody out there trying to put together a condition census 13 Colony type set this appears to be the first note on your list. Newman lists notes from this issue at $1,500 in Gem CU which seems conservative for a note of this quality.
Grade: PCGS Gem CU 66 PPQ

Lot #804 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 200.00 - $ 300.00)
DE-74 18d January 1, 1776
A very well signed and lightly circulated example from this more available Delaware issue. Newman lists this at $250 in EF and $500 in Unc.
Grade: About Uncirculated

Lot #805 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
DE-83 6d May 1, 1777
A lovely small change example from this much scarcer 1777 issue. The margins are broad and even a boldly executed signature is present. Newman lists these at $375 in XF grade.
Grade: PCGS Extremely Fine 45

Lot #806 - Colonial Currency > Georgia - ($ 550.00 - $ 750.00)
GA-62 6d 1776
Gigantic margins are seen on this six pence denomination note from the Sterling issue. Well signed and with wonderful print quality this note appears to be just on the cusp of the XF grade. Newman lists this at $900 in Very Fine and $1,500 in XF.
Grade: PCGS VF 35

Lot #807 - Colonial Currency > Georgia - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
GA-63 1s 1776
A boldly printed Georgia note that is attractive yet tightly margined with a small edge tear at left. Newman lists this at $900 in Very Fine.
Grade: Very Fine

Lot #808 - Colonial Currency > Georgia - ($ 2,000.00 - $ 3,000.00)
GA-71a Blue Seal $1 1776
High grade colored seal Georgia notes are always in great demand in the collecting community. SUSTINE RECTUM is found in the seal which Newman translates, "Support what is right." Through the third party holder the note has the appearance of an AU grade. Well signed with great color and just a light fold or two visible. Newman values this blue seal note at $5,000 in XF with no higher grade given. That assessment might seem a bit ambitious but it would not surprise us to see a price realized of at least half that amount.
Grade: PCGS Extremely Fine 40

Lot #809 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
MD-64 Contemporary Inscription $1/2 April 10, 1774
This is a really neat note that should realize well beyond its normal value. PCGS notes a contemporary inscription which states "1774" in the top margin and "Revolutionary Money - Beth from Miss Piggot." This fractional denomination note has gigantic margins on all sides, great signatures, superb printing and a full left indent which is not often seen. This is the type of showcase note that collectors brag about to their non-collecting friends to show them the historical interest that kindles their passion.
Grade: PCGS AU 53 PPQ

Lot #810 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 325.00 - $ 525.00)
MD-70 $8 April 10, 1774
A very well signed Maryland type note with crisp paper surfaces and a single center fold. Newman lists these at $250 in EF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS About New 50

Lot #811 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 175.00 - $ 275.00)
MD-90 $8 December 7, 1775
From the face this Maryland note appears to be fully XF with good signatures and crisp paper. The 1775 issue is far scarcer than its 1774 predecessor as is indicated by the Newman value of $500 in Very Fine.
Grade: PCGS VF 25

Lot #812 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
MD-100 $4 August 14, 1776
A bright and well printed example of this scarcer 1776 issue. Essentially never seen in uncirculated condition a nice EF or AU is about as good as it gets and even those are quite rare. Newman lists this note at $800 in Extremely Fine.
Grade: Extremely Fine

Lot #813 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
MA-177 2s/8d December 7, 1775
This could be the world's most affordable Sword in Hand note as the grading service notes it is a partial note with edge damage and repaired tears. With that said it is better than having no Sword in Hand note at all in your collection as the back does show the minuteman with his sword in one hand and Magna Carta in the other. Newman values this at $3,000 in Very Good and $4,500 in Fine but those prices are obviously for intact pieces.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Very Good 10

Lot #814 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 550.00 - $ 750.00)
MA-198 1s/8d June 18, 1776
A great example from this condition-challenged issue. These notes were printed on coarse paper and did not make for a high quality note. As we cannot recall ever having seen an uncirculated example this is clearly one of the nicest we have seen. PCGS notes a minor restoration near center but it looks to us to merely be a closed pinhole or something like that. Newman lists this at $1,250 in Extremely Fine with no higher grade listed.
Grade: PCGS Apparent About New 50

Lot #815 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 850.00 - $ 1,250.00)
MA-237 24s Contemporary Counterfeit June 18, 1776
Likely the only way most collectors will ever be able to obtain or for that matter afford a "Small Sword in Hand" note. This contemporary counterfeit is a well signed and crisp example with plenty of embossing present. This counterfeit has been pen cancelled and is given its name due to the much smaller Minuteman vignette than what is seen on the regular Sword in Hand issues. A really spectacular piece that carries itself like an near uncirculated example.
Grade: PCGS Extremely Fine 40

Lot #816 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 100.00 - $ 200.00)
November 17, 1776 Sword in Hand Reprint
An attractive and interesting reprint of a rare sword in Hand issue that is bright with the full plate impression. These have been very popular recently as collectors swarm to obtain one.
Grade: CU

Lot #817 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,000.00)
MA-254 2d October 16, 1778
An interesting example from this codfish issue that has two huge sheet selvage and two narrrow margins. It isn't very often that lightly circulated examples are seen as they are either Fine-VF or screaming gems from strips that were cut. When these do appear they generally realize around $750 or more so we would expect a similar result here.
Grade: PCGS Extremely Fine 40

Lot #818 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 75.00 - $ 125.00)
MA-280 $3 May 5, 1780
PCGS notes that this is hole punch cancelled but it is actually slash cancelled making it much scarcer as such.
Grade: PCGS EF 40

Lot #819 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,500.00)
MA-289 $16 1781
This issue with the hand-signed date was unknown until a few years ago when a small group showed up. Back around 2004 those three notes all realized around $5,000-$6,000 each and this is likely one of those examples. Superbly embossed and very attractive this example is lightly handled. We would expect a solid price for this example based both upon rarity and condition.

Lot #820 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
NH-181 $3 April 29, 1780

Grade: Very Fine

Lot #821 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)
NH-185 $8 April 29, 1780
This New Hampshire guarantee note is bright, well signed and exuding tremendous aesthetic appeal. Hole cancelled as usual. Through the holder the note appears to be a solid AU note. With a printing of only 2,900 for this denomination it is understandable why the Newman reference prices this at $625 in XF and $1,000 in Unc.
Grade: PCGS EF 45

Lot #822 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
NH-186 $20 April 29, 1780
Another New Hampshire guarantee note that has great print quality, three boldly executed signatures and a plethora of eye appeal.

Lot #823 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 425.00 - $ 575.00)
NJ-84 18d June 22, 1756
The eye appeal afforded this piece is far superior to its assigned grade. Near Gem margins, with bold print detail and exceptional signatures. Newman lists this at $500 in Unc and we don't have any qualms with that.
Grade: PCGS New 61

Lot #824 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
NJ-92 1s June 22, 1756
A lovely example of this first readily collectible New Jersey issue. These are actually very solid margins for the type with incredible detailed printing and three boldly executed signatures. We are somewhat surprised that this did not come in as a higher grade.
Grade: PCGS New 62 PPQ

Lot #825 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
NJ-92 1s June 22, 1756
The June 1756 issue is the first of the collectible New Jersey issues since they survived in sheet form and are almost always seen in high grade. This example is exceptionally well margined, boldly printed and well signed. PCGS has noted restorations which are seen primarily at the top and bottom of the center fold. Otherwise this beauty has the eye appeal of a gem.
Grade: PCGS Apparent AU 50

Lot #826 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 350.00 - $ 550.00)

Grade: Uncirculated

Lot #828 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 650.00 - $ 950.00)
NJ-113 6 Pounds November 20, 1757
An astounding example of this rare denomination which had a meager printing of only 1,100 with very few survivors. This is not to be confused with many of the other New Jersey issues of the 1756-1776 time period; this one is scarce in all grades. This wonderfully printed and boldly detailed example faces up like a glorious Very Fine which would not surprise us as PMG is notoriously tight on grading these earlier Colonial issues that don't have wonderful paper quality. Newman values this at $500 in Fine and $1,000 in Very Fine and it would not surprise this cataloger to see a four figure price considering that this very same note sold for $805 just a couple of years ago.

NJ-131 3 Pounds April 10, 1759
A scarcer high denomination example from this scarce and underrated early New Jersey note. A well signed example that has a minor edge repair of the bottom center fold. Otherwise it is a classy looking piece with great visual impact that looks even better from the back. With a scant printing of only 2,850 it is easy to see why Newman values this at $500 in Very Fine.

NJ-140 3 Pounds April 12, 1760
A wonderful note that faces up like a solid VF example but for some repaired edge splits, seen at the top and bottom of the center fold. A bright note with a miniscule printing of 2,759 for this denomination. Newman values this at $750 in Fine and $1,250 in Very Fine.

Lot #831 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 250.00 - $ 450.00)
NJ-145 3L April 23, 1761
This is #1745 out of a printing of 2,850. These earlier New Jersey high denomination notes are grossly underappreciated by today's collecting community. Higher grade examples such as this one in comment-free holders are worth their weight in gold (yes, VF is high grade for these). Newman values this at $750 in VF and we would not be shocked if this took a run at that number.

Lot #832 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 150.00 - $ 250.00)
NJ-158 30s December 31, 1763
While all the lower denominations up through the 15s note are dirt common and almost always high grade once you get to the 30s denomination that all changes. Obviously these did not survive in sheet form and therefore circulated freely which is why we see them lower grade and with problems. This example is very well signed, crisp and fresh with the look and feel of a Very Fine note. Newman assesses the value of these at $300 in Fine and $450 in Very Fine.

Stunning is the only adjective that comes to mind when viewing this note. It has jumbo margins on all sides, perfect centering, exceptional embossing and flawless paper surfaces. Superb Gem Colonials are always in demand and likely always will be as there are not enough high grade pieces to go around.

NJ-183 6L March 25, 1776
With a scant printing of only 3,125 this is by far the scarcest denomination from this otherwise common issue. The note is strictly uncirculated with great print detail and robust signatures. These tri-color Colonials have always been very popular with collectors due to their superb eye appeal. While Newman lists the common denominations at $250 in Unc and $500 in Choice CU the 6 pound note is valued at $2,000 in Unc and $3,000 in Choice CU.

Lot #839 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,200.00)
NJ-183 6 Pounds March 25, 1776
In terms of both technical grade and eye appeal this high denomination tri-color note is astounding in every way. A wonderfully embossed and well margined example, just a couple of handled corners accounting for the grade. With a printing of only 3,125 this is far and away the scarcest denomination from this painfully common series. The Newman tome places this denomination at $1,000 in Extremely Fine and $2,000 in Unc.

NY-152 10L April 20, 1756
With a printing of 2,200 this is really quite a scarce early New York issue and one of the first that is somewhat obtainable. Strong detail is seen although it needs to be mentioned that there is a lengthy split along the bottom half of the center fold. Unpriced in Newman except to note that an XF sold at 2004 Stacks sale for $1,840.
Grade: Very Fine

Lot #842 - Colonial Currency > New York - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
NY-154 10 Pounds April 15, 1758
All of these pre-1770s New York notes are very tough to obtain with higher grade and being problem free. PCGS notes an edge nick and mounting remnants but it does very little to affect the eye appeal of this early note.

Lot #843 - Colonial Currency > New York - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
NY-164 2L February 16, 1771
An incredible example of this condition-challenged 1771 New York issue. The paper is bright, it's well margined and remains well embossed. A couple of small tear repairs at the top and bottom of the center fold are seen, but that's ok since 98% of the notes from this issue have problems. Newman values this at $900 in Very Fine. Do not be shy when attempting to place your bid on this beauty as it's probably one of the nicest ones you will find.
Grade: Very Fine Choice

NY-168 1s Water Works August 25, 1774
An incredibly well embossed and boldly signed example from this somewhat less frequently seen Water Works issue. These Water Works notes were the first paper money issued by an American city and have always been very popular with collectors. Newman values this at $350 in XF.

NY-194 $5 March 5, 1776
With a meager printing of only 2,350 this New York Colonial is anything but common. It is a solid AU note with bold signatures and excellent print quality. PMG mentions stain repairs, which are confined to the back of the note. The back shows a Candelabrum vignette as well as the motto UNO EODEMQUE IGNI, which Newman translates "With one and the same flame." Newman values this at $1,250 in Extremely Fine and $2,500 in UNC.

Four bold signatures and decent printing remain on this scarce, early North Carolina note that has the Winged Stirrup vignette. PCGS notes splits, edge damage, and backed but with a printing of only 2,000 for this denomination one cannot be too picky. Newman values this at $1,500 in Very Fine which of course is for a problem free example.

The highest denomination from this scarce early issue it is well signed with the vignette of Fort Johnson and the Union Jack. PCGS notes repaired splits and tears which are omnipresent on these early Carolina notes. A paltry printing of 2,000 results in a catalog value of $1,500 in Very Fine.

NC-82 5 Pounds 1756-1757
This is a much scarcer issue with handwritten dates, in this case December 15, 1757. PCGS has noted that this backed note has splits as they all do from this condition-challenged issue.

Any PPQ note from these earlier North Carolina issues is not to be confused with the droves of notes that are a part of the hoard. This bright, well signed and wonderfully embossed example should challenge the Newman value of $400 in Very Fine grade. A wonderful Proclamation note destined for an advanced collection.

A bright and very well signed example of this scarcer denomination that had a trivial printing of only 1,000. Newman lists this at $400 in Very Fine but it should be noted we rarely see these notes with this high a technical grade. PCGS notes small edge tears and repairs but they are relatively minor.

NC-140 30s December 1771
In terms of eye appeal this is one of the nicest examples we have ever seen. But for a repaired edge tear at left this note is glorious in every way. Gigantic margins on all sides are complemented by this boldly signed and wonderfully embossed note. With a printing figure of only 4,000 this denomination is far scarcer than those lower denominations that survive in the ubiquitous sheets that are floating around in every sale.
Grade: PCGS Apparent AU 53

Lot #858 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
NC-142 3L December 1771
With only 3,000 printed this high denominaton note is much scarcer than most of the lower denoms that are found on the surviving sheets. Bold Magna Charta vignette and tremendous signatures give this piece great eye appeal even though there are a couple of minor tears. Newman values this at $375 in XF.
Grade: Extremely Fine

Lot #859 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
NC-143 5L December 1771
With a printing of only 2,000 notes, this highest denomination should not be confused with the plethora of lower denomination examples extant from this common series. A wonderfully embossed and well signed example with the Drum, cannon and flags vignette. Newman lists this at $500 in XF, almost double what the more common denomination notes are valued at.

NC-165 $8 Leopard April 2, 1776
A lovely example of this Leopard vignette which comes from one of the most fascinating series in all of Colonial currency. There are some edge tears and center split which do little to affect the eye appeal of this nearly XF note. The Midnight Ride example was graded "35" and that sold for $460 on that day. Newman values this note at $1,000 if a problem free VF.

Lot #861 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
PA-147 10s March 20, 1771
A bright and well signed example of this much scarcer 1771 issue that is vastly underrated by today's wholly unknowledgeable Colonial collecting community. Perfect margins and centering nicely frame this well printed note which looks AU through the holder. Newman lists this at $750 in XF which sounds about right for a note of this caliber.

PA-171 4s March 25, 1775
A superb example of this scarcer Lighthouse issue that has great signatures, boldly printed text and superb centering. While all four denominations of this issue have the same printing figure of 3,000 it has been your cataloger's experience that the two highest denominations are far more common than are the lower denomination notes. Newman lists this series at $1,000 in Unc which hardly takes into account the very high state of preservation of this note.

Lot #864 - Colonial Currency > Pennslyvania - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
PA-174 16s March 25, 1775
A very popular Lighthouse note with the back inverted as always. This note is crisp and fresh and faces up like AU. Better margins than most examples that we have seen from this series. With only 3,000 printed for this denomination it is easy to see how Newman values this at $500 in XF.

A gorgeous small change note that looks as if it could just have easily earned another point of consideration from the grading services. Bold red ink signature and serial number remain and the centering is essentially perfect. A flawless note printed on crackling fresh paper. Much more challenging than the commonly seen 1777 issue notes this beauty is listed in Newman at $750 in Unc.

Ogden Note 5d January 18, 1777
This is simply the nicest Ogden note that your cataloger has ever seen and likely that will remain true well into the future. There is nothing about this note to disparage its reputation. It has monster margins on all sides, the depth of printing is astounding and mountainous embossing ranges across immaculate paper surfaces. Newman values this at $300 in Choice CU which is laughable for an example of this unfathomable beauty.
Grade: Superb Gem CU

Lot #870 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
Ogden Note 6d January 18, 1777
A wonderfully embossed and boldly printed example of this desirable Ogden note. It has two huge margins and two smaller margins but the overall quality is that of a Gem. A couple of natural paper inclusions do little to distract from its eye appeal. Newman values this at $300 in Choice CU.
Grade: Gem CU

Lot #871 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,000.00)
PA-245 1s6d April 20, 1781
This is a scarce later Pennsylvania issue with most available notes in the Fine-VF grade range. Nice XF or better examples are usually only available when advanced collections are dispersed. Not to be confused with the much more common small change notes, these higher denomination examples are really quite scarce. When condition and rarity combine forces high prices usually result. Newman values this at $1,500 in Extremely Fine and $3,000 in Unc.
Grade: PMG Choice EF 45

Lot #872 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 150.00 - $ 250.00)

A very attractive example of this Lawful Money issue from which this denomination had a paltry printing of 4,000. Evenly circulated and right on the cusp of the full VF grade. These 1770s issues are far scarcer than their 1780 and 1786 cousins and are rarely encountered in comment free holders. Newman lists this at $750 in Fine and $1,500 in Very Fine.

This very scarce fractional denomination note faces up as a bright, boldly signed and very well margined XF which PCGS notes has a restoration at left. A ton of original embossing is evident and the eye appeal is superb. Newman values this at $1,500 for a problem free EF note so we'll scale back the estimate some but not too much.

There is little to say here. This note is utterly astounding as the PCGS 68 PPQ grade will attest to. Huge margins, perfect centering and mountainous embossing all lend credence to the grade. One of the few notes out there in this state of preservation. We sold one other, I believe, at our 2007 PCDA sale in this grade and that realized a hair over $4,000. We would not be at all surprised to find this note in that class as registry set owners vie to complete their high grade type set.

A single center fold is seen on this lovely South Carolina Colonial that is fully signed and numbered, not to be confused with the painfully common remainders from this series. Newman lists these at $750 in EF and $1,500 in Unc. The latter value is somewhat misleading as your cataloger can never remember having seen a truly uncirculated and fully signed example from this issue.

In terms of eye appeal we are fairly certainly we have never seen an example nicer than this one. It has utterly gigantic margins on all sides, superbly executed signatures, cavernous embossing and boldly printed Cornucopia vignette. These are always popular as a type note so if you're putting together a 13 Colony set this is perfect as your high grade South Carolina note.

SC-157 $80 February 8, 1779
This lovely note was printed by Thomas Coram of Charleston, SC and this denomination was part of the original issue. Very well signed with a couple of light folds it has tremendous eye appeal for the grade. The vignette of a Man with Sword bears the motto CONSTANTIA DURISSIMA VINCIT which is translated "The firmest constancy will conquer." Newman prices this at $2,500 in Extremely Fine and $5,000 in Unc making it more valuable than all the other denominations but the highest.
Grade: PMG Choice EF 45 EPQ

Lot #891 - Colonial Currency > Vermont - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
VT-4 5s February 1781
PMG has net graded this note due to tape repairs and missing pieces which is certainly true enough since only about forty percent of the note is present. For most collectors this is as close to an affordable Vermont note as they will ever come and in today's cash-strapped economy that counts for an awful lot.
Grade: PMG Net Fair 2

Lot #892 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,500.00)
VA-138 $6 Handwritten Dates May 4, 1778
Both L. Wood and James Wray signed the higher denomination examples of this RARE issue. Almost all of the notes from this series have printed dates. The handwritten dates were printed only 1,000 per denomination and this is number 220 for the $6 denomination. It is a moderately circulated example that looks half a grade higher. It has absolutely no problems to mention and it is easily one of the nicest examples available. A check of auction records shows the Midnight Ride collection had a stunning AU example with this being the next nicest note your cataloger can ever recall having seen. Newman lists this series at $2,000 in Very Fine with no higher grade given and it would not surprise us to see that mark tested by this piece as it will likely be a long time before another becomes available.
Grade: PCGS Very Fine 30

Lot #893 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
VA-189 $80 July 14, 1780
Much like the October issue rice paper note we have in the same grade here. The note is wonderfully signed, fully margined with stunning visual impact. No rips, tears, holes, erosion or the like which is found on 98% of all Virginia rice paper notes. A truly flawless example worthy of the finest Colonial collections.
Grade: PCGS Very Fine 35

Lot #894 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
VA-195 $400 October 16, 1780
The non-Colonial specialist might have a difficult time truly appreciating this note but it is well worth all the ogling it receives. These rice paper notes were printed on thin and weak paper so virtually all known examples show signs of tears, holes, ink erosion and other such maladies. This beautiful note, which certainly appears to be Extremely Fine, has huge margins, great centering and bold signatures. By itself that would make it a real premium example. We have examined this note at length and there is not so much as a hint of a problem anywhere and that makes it a potential four figure item.
Grade: PCGS Very Fine 35

Lot #895 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
VA-206b $150 March 1, 1781
This is the variety printed on thick, laid paper. The note itself is wonderfully margined, bright and well embossed with a 1/4" edge tear at the bottom. Newman lists this at $650 in Extremely Fine with no higher grade listed.
Grade: About Uncirculated

Lot #896 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
VA-210 $10 May 7, 1781
Serial # 252 from a meager printing of 2,760. These lower denomination notes are actually much scarcer than the high denomination examples even those receive all the glory. A wonderfully embossed, perfectly centered and generally letter perfect example for the grade. Auction records for this lowest denomination note are few and far between. Newman values these at $650 in Extremely Fine with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Extremely Fine 45

Lot #897 - Continental Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CC-5 $5 May 10, 1775
This is a wonderfully signed and boldly printed example from this scarcer first Continental emission. Through the holder the note looks Choice New as we cannot make out the reason for the assigned grade. Newman lists this at $750 in Unc.
Grade: PCGS Choice About New 55

Lot #898 - Continental Currency - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,250.00)
CC-6 $6 May 10, 1775
An immaculately crisp and wonderfully signed example from this first Continental emission that is deserving of the finest of collections. Newman lists this at $750 in Choice CU and that seems like a good starting point for an estimate.
Grade: Choice CU

Lot #899 - Continental Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 575.00)
CC-12 $2 November 29, 1775
A center fold separates this lovely example from a much higher grade. The note is well margined and perfectly centered. We have recently seen notes in this grade realize between $400-$500.
Grade: PCGS About New 50

Lot #900 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-15 $5 November 29, 1775
A very well signed and utterly original example of this early Continental note. It appears that a little softness on one of the corners accounts for the conservative assessment.
Grade: PCGS Choice About New 58 PPQ

Lot #901 - Continental Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
CC-16 $6 November 29, 1775
Robustly printed signatures and serial number are accompanied by stunning print detail. A lavishly embossed and exquisite example that would be a Gem but for the right margin being a little too narrow.
Grade: Choice Uncirculated

Lot #902 - Continental Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 450.00)
CC-16 $6 November 29, 1775
A boldly signed and very well printed Continental note that has some light handling and a light stained area on the back.
Grade: Choice About Uncirculated

Lot #903 - Continental Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
CC-17 $7 November 29, 1775
A wonderfully signed and fresh Continental that has a plethora of embossing as well. The tight right margin separates this note from a higher grade.
Grade: Uncirculated

Lot #904 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,050.00 - $ 1,550.00)
CC-21 $1/2 February 17, 1776
A light center fold is seen on this fractional denomination Continental note. The Fugio design on the front with the sundial and "Mind Your Business" motto as well as the thirteen colonies chain links on the back has always made this an extremely popular type with collectors.
Grade: PMG AU 53

Lot #905 - Continental Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)
CC-26 $4 February 17, 1776
A wonderfully embossed and boldly signed example from this popular issue that would grade far higher but for small margins. Newman lists these whole dollar notes at $1,100 in Choice CU.
Grade: PCGS New 62

Lot #906 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 2,750.00)
CC-27 $5 February 17, 1776
Even as far as Gems go this note has more stunning eye appeal than any we can recall ever having seen. The note has incredible print quality, superb signatures and sublime paper quality. It has the look of a Continental that was just printed last week. Newman lists this at $1,100 in Choice CU with no higher value given but we are firmly convinced that this note will likely go to the moon before the hammer falls.
Grade: Gem CU

Lot #907 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-27 $5 February 17, 1776
The technical grade might be Choice AU but the eye appeal is as nice as most near Gems we have seen. A boldly signed and well margined Continental that should bring well beyond typical AU money.
Grade: Choice About Uncirculated

Lot #908 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-27 $5 February 17, 1776
CC-27 Ben Jacobs Signature $5 February 17, 1776
A lightly handled example of this early Continental series with great centering and easily detectable originality. One of the signers of this note is Ben Jacobs, long thought to be the second Jewish signer of Continental currency. Although this theory has been debunked in recent years it still carries a premium for notes containing his signature. The higher denomination examples from this series were printed in smaller quantities.
Grade: PCGS AU 53 PPQ

Lot #909 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,500.00)
CC-37 $7 May 9, 1776
Another lovely Gem Continental note that has been blessed with sizeable margins, bold signatures and powerful embossing. A really nice example that should find its way into an advanced collection or a high grade type set.
Grade: Gem CU

Lot #910 - Continental Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 575.00)
CC-38 $8 May 9, 1776
A very attractive piece of Continental Currency from this earlier issue. If there is one area of collecting Colonial currency that continues to draw record prices it is Continentals. The Newman price of $550 in Unc is starting to become outdated since the market has caught up to its valuations.
Grade: PCGS AU 53 PPQ

Lot #911 - Continental Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 350.00)
CC-42 $5 July 22, 1776
The July 1776 issue is third in scarcity behind only the Yorktown issue and the May 1777 issue. Newman values this note at $325 in XF. The detail of this note is half a grade higher with a couple of light specks of discoloration.
Grade: Extremely Fine

Lot #912 - Continental Currency - ($ 200.00 - $ 300.00)
CC-50 $5 Benjamin Levy Signature November 2, 1776
Benjamin Levy is now known to be the only confirmed Jewish signer of Continental Currency and examples with his signature carry a significant premium for the type. This well printed and evenly circulated note has a bold Levy signature while many that are seen are weak.
Grade: Very Fine

Lot #913 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 2,750.00)
CC-56 $3 February 26, 1777
A totally original, wonderfully embossed and crackling fresh Continental note that should warm the cockles of every collector's heart. In the past year we have seen several Gems from this issue tempt the $3,000 mark in Gem grade. Newman lists this popular Baltimore issue notes at $1,300 in Choice CU with nothing listed higher.
Grade: Gem CU

Lot #914 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 1,750.00)
CC-78 $40 Contemporary Counterfeit April 11, 1778
An exceptionally high grade example of this commonly counterfeited Yorktown denomination. The note has exceptionally bold printing and great eye appeal. The right margin is a hair small but otherwise the piece is a perfect Gem. While these often are encountered in the VF-AU grade range, uncirculated examples are a far tougher animal to obtain.
Grade: Choice Uncirculated

Lot #915 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-79 $5 Counterfeit Detector September 26, 1778
A superb counterfeit detector that has two huge margins, great embossing and fresh from the sheet look. A tight left margin is all that separates this note from the Gem grade.
Grade: Choice CU

Lot #916 - Continental Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 575.00)
CC-79 $5 September 26, 1778
A beautifully framed and wonderfully centered example from this somewhat tougher denomination that has a value of $500 in Unc according to the updated Newman price guide. The Hand Pricking Thorns emblem is always a popular one with collectors.
Grade: PCGS AU 50

Lot #917 - Continental Currency - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,250.00)
CC-83 $30 September 26, 1778
A stunning Continental note with great embossing, plentiful margins and exceptional eye appeal. The past year has shown us how desirable this branch of Colonial Currency collecting has become.
Grade: Very Choice CU

Lot #918 - Continental Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CC-83 Counterfeit Detector $30 September 26, 1778
This lovely counterfeit detector note gives the appearance of a screaming Gem when viewed through the holder. The margins are large with perfect centering. A wonderfully embossed example that has superb print quality. The Midnight Ride Collection and the Collection of a Patriotic American showed the collecting community just how desirable these notes have become to today's generation of numismatic caretakers.
Grade: PCGS Choice New 63 PPQ

Lot #919 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 1,500.00)
CC-84 Counterfeit Detector $40 September 26, 1778
Simply stated this is as nice an example of a counterfeit detector note as we can ever recall having seen. Hulking margins and dead on centering frame this note. The embossing is so well punched through that the note crimps in a couple of spots. If you are ever able to locate a nicer example please tell us so we can marvel at near perfection.
Grade: Superb Gem CU

Lot #920 - Continental Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 575.00)

Lot #921 - Continental Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CC-85 $50 September 26, 1778
Abundant margins and perfect centering are clearly evident on this wonderfully embossed note. If it weren't for some minor staining at the right end this would be a four figure Gem. As it lays it should probably realize at least half that amount.
Grade: Uncirculated

Lot #922 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 2,750.00)
CC-86 $60 Counterfeit Detector September 26, 1778
In terms of both technical merit and aesthetic appeal this counterfeit detector is absolutely astounding. It has great margins and centering, superior embossing and sublime paper surfaces. While these certainly appear in the Choice CU range truly superb Gems are rarely seen for any Continental issue. A picture perfect example that will greatly augment the status of anyone's type set. In the past year a couple of major Colonial and Continental currency collections have been dispersed and none of them had an example of this caliber.
Grade: PCGS Superb Gem New 67 PPQ

Lot #923 - Continental Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)

Lot #924 - Continental Currency - ($ 125.00 - $ 175.00)
CC-87 $1 January 14, 1779
A very pleasing example of this scarcer and desirable denomination that has been given the apparent grade due to edge tears and mounting remnants and stains on the back. It faces up much better than what the grade would make you think.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #925 - Continental Currency - ($ 350.00 - $ 550.00)
CC-89 $3 January 14, 1779
A wonderfully original and well signed example with a minor sheet fold along the top border. These lower denomination notes from the first sheet are actually much scarcer than most of the higher denomination examples.

Lot #927 - Continental Currency - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,300.00)
CC-101 $70 January 14, 1779
The two highest denomination notes from this final Continental emission, the $70 and $80, have always received great acclaim as the most desirable examples to obtain. This example is likely one of the nicest available as it falls just short of the Gem grade due to some faint corner handling. Wonderfully embossed and boldly signed its eye appeal is nothing short of stunning. Newman values this denomination at $1,500 in Choice CU with no higher grade given.
Grade: Choice CU

Lot #928 - Continental Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CC-102 $120 Fourth Bill of Exchange September 10, 1779
$120 Fourth Bill of Exchange September 10, 1779
A stunning Continental Loan Office Fourth Bill of Exchange on the colony of Pennsylvania. This example, as were most, was signed by Francis Hopkinson, Treasurer of Loans and well known as a signer of the Declaration of Independence. While Fourth Bills are fairly common the $120 denomination is far scarcer and more desirable than most of the lower denominations. A very high grade example that has great color and eye appeal with a couple of tears and some ink erosion confined to the top part of the note.
Grade: Extremely Fine
