Lot #2115 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,250.00 - $ 3,500.00)
Fr. 16 $1 1862
A bright and fresh example of the earliest type of $1 Legal Tenders. The centering is a bit low for a Choice designation but the paper quality is otherwise beautiful.
Grade: PCGS New 62 PPQ   
Lot #2116 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,800.00 - $ 3,000.00)
Fr. 16c $1 1862
A fresh, attractive and early Legal Tender from the first type of Legal Tender $1 notes issued by the US Government. I see a minor water spot but no particular evidence of circulation. Decent centering and very nice.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58   
Lot #2117 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 6,000.00 - $ 9,000.00)
Fr. 18 $1 1869
This note was previously offered in our October 2008 sale where it was described as, "This is definitely a pristine Rainbow $1 with spectacular margins, square corners, exquisite colors and virtually perfectly aligned printing. Worthy of a record bid. This note is from a collection formed exclusively by Stanley Morycz and was assembled with the finest quality, low numbers and scarcest signature combinations that were available at the time. Quality was always the utmost consideration and it shows." This Rainbow $1 is truly a Gem as the color and originality are so overwhelming in stature. The centering is at least really nice, but not Superb. Worth a real serious bid in this market. Not part of the recently discovered run but lovely and original. Now Superb is generally attached to "67" grades but I think this is more of a "65" quality.
Grade: Gem CU   
Lot #2118 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 4,000.00 - $ 7,000.00)
Fr. 18 $1 1869
From our June 2007, Lot 204. This Rainbow $1 is truly a Gem as the color and originality are so overwhelming in stature. The centering is at least really nice, but not Superb. Worth a real serious bid in this market. As I said in my 2007 description this is a very pretty Rainbow $1 but a hoard of 50 came out and the prices seemed a bit inflated at this time, hence my conservative estimate.
Grade: Gem CU   
Lot #2119 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 18 $1 1869
An attractive Rainbow Deuce that has good color and ample margins. There are three heavy folds and some other light folds but the appearance is strong for the assigned grade. Edge and internal splits are the reason for the Apparent grade. Fine examples bring around $500 and VF closer to $900 when problem free.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15   
Lot #2120 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 20 $1 1875
A nice looking UNC example of this 1875 $1 Legal Tender. Only the centering holds it from a higher grade. An excellent example.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63   
Lot #2121 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Fr. 34 $1 1880
A very attractive example of this 1880 issue with the blue serial numbers. This note has the better signatures of Rosecrans and Nebeker.
Grade: CU   
Lot #2122 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 5,000.00)
Fr. 37 $1 1917 #M3A
I really like this note. There is something about a single digit red seal that I find special. There just aren't many opportunities to acquire special items like this, so now would be a great time to acquire one. A corner tip fold is just into the design.
Grade: AU +   
Lot #2123 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 5,000.00)
Fr. 37 $1 1917 #M4A
A well centered single-digit Legal Tender from the first sheet. These low serial number notes are rarely ever on the market and here we have both #M3A and #M4A. Pick one...they are neat and desirable.
Grade: AU/UNC   
Lot #2124 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
Fr. 37 $1 1917 Babe Ruth Autograph
This note bears the signature of baseball legend Babe Ruth across the serial number at the right, along with the date of 9-28-20 above it. This signature combination was printed between 1919 and 1921. This lot also contains a certificate of authenticity by PSA/DNA. The PCGS slab doesn't certify the authenticity of the signature but PSA/DNA does.
Grade: PCGS Fine 12   
Lot #2125 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Fr. 39 $1 1917
This is a very attractive $1 Legal Tender but although it was graded Gem by CGA, in May 1998, but due to centering I'm not sure it's deserving of a "67" grade that CGA assigned. This type did not come with jumbo margins.
Grade: CGA Gem UNC 67   
Lot #2126 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 40 $1 1923 #A231B

Fr. 40 $1 1923 #A232B
A consecutive note to the notes listed before and after. A very high quality example with great color and centering. There are quite a number of low serial numbers known, so why not have one for about the same price as a non-low number?
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #2128 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,500.00)

Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64   
Lot #2130 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 300.00 - $ 450.00)
Fr. 40 $1 1923
This note has a couple of minor brown spots. PCGS notes them as rust stains.

Lot #2131 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Fr. 43 $2 1874
This is a very scarce 1874 issue that always exceeds price expectations that have been offered by currency pricing people. A lovely note with just a corner tip fold.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #2132 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 500.00 - $ 750.00)

Lot #2133 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 7,500.00 - $ 15,000.00)
Fr. 60 $2 1917
If you want to build a truly amazing large size type set you can start right here with this solid serial #D55555555A. Just try and see how many wonder serial numbers you can find to build out a great type set, even if you only use the 'common' types. Solid serial numbers, single digits, stars, radars, repeaters - there are lots of possibilities without even starting with rarities for types. This note is a beauty with great color and nicely centered. There is a fold nearly at one end.
Grade: Ch. AU   
Lot #2134 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 225.00 - $ 350.00)
Fr. 60 $2 1917
A high quality example for this issue.

Fr. 61a $5 1862
This is the first issue $5 Legal Tender of 1862. This example is crisp and fresh albeit a bit tight on the right edge, as are so many of this issue. The colors are very fresh and bright, hence the EPQ designation on a 62.
Grade: PMG UNC 62 EPQ   
Lot #2136 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 6,500.00 - $ 8,500.00)
Fr. 64 $5 1869

Lot #2137 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 2,000.00 - $ 4,000.00)
Fr. 69 $5 1878
This note came from our October 2006 sale where it was graded Gem UNC 68 by CGA and realized $4,830. While this note has exceptional centering it's hard to assess the grade assigned by another company.
Grade: CGA Gem UNC 68   
Lot #2138 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 82 $5 1880
This is one of the toughest signature combinations of the $5 Legal Series, with a mere 49 pieces known in all grades combined. The Fr. 82 is rarely available in any grade and is on many a want list.

Grade: XF/AU   
Lot #2148 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 3,000.00 - $ 4,000.00)
Fr. 122 $10 1899
Quality and color like this make a purist purr over the beauty of the ever popular Buffalo note. Yes, it has folds but the price tag reflects that as well as its desirability.
Grade: XF/AU   
Lot #2149 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 2,000.00)
Fr. 122 $10 1901
This is the quality you need to get for this grade, if it's at all possible. This note has the visual appearance of a well centered UNC but the folds of a nice VF. A great Bison example. Closer to XF than VF in value.
Grade: VF/XF   
Lot #2150 - Large Size Type Notes > Legal Tender - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)

Fr. 123 $10 1923
I fell very fortunate to offer such a lovely example of this "Poker Chip" note. Only 696,000 were printed and this one is only 30 away from the end. Very few high quality examples of this extremely popular and sought after note have been available since 2008 when we sold one for $17,250 and Heritage sold one for $18,250. These may not be far from the market price today. How long do you wait?

This is the rare and desirable Fr. 229a in Gem CU. This remains the key variety to the Black Eagle set. To find quality better than this is near impossible to locate as most reported notes are circ. We offered the consecutive note in 2005 and it realized $20,125.

This is the scarcer and popular large brown seal $2 Silver Certificate but the holder incorrectly identifies this as a Fr. 243. This note was offered by CAA in September 2000 as a Gem. It was also last offered by Superior in 2007, before that by us and Heritage, with all of us selling it as a CGA Gem UNC 68. A Gem with very broad margins.

The Coin Notes or Treasury Notes have always been a very important and exciting series for collectors. The uniformity of the various denomination designs lend an air of continuity to the set where it's the general on the face design, the ornate backs like this one or the simplified backs of the 1891 issue. These note are rare and the ornate back designs are exceptional. This John Marshall note is among the finest extant. In fact, only a single example has been graded higher by PMG at 67 EPQ. This 65 EPQ is one of four graded that way. This note came from the Peter Gamble Collection that sold in January 2008 and realized $37,375 and I expect no less when sold here.

Fr. 907a/907b $10 1914BS Boston
In the case of the Fr. 907a/b changeover pair, you are seeing production from a four-plate press on which they had mounted both a 907a and 907b plate next to each other. It was standard practice at the BEP to use up obsolete plates alongside current plates as an economy measure, so this type of thing occurs throughout the history of currency production. This is the identical practice that produced changeover signature pairs in both large and small size, mules, etc. The case of the consecutive pair going from plate position H to E is not at all out of the ordinary. They cut the sheets in half and then overprinted the serial numbers on the half sheets. This produces a stream of letters from the right halves that progressed as follows through the pack: E-F-G-H-E-F-G-H-E-F-G-H and so on. Notice that the plate numbers on these two notes are different: 408 and 410. Those are two of the four plates on the press as discussed previously in regard to your Fr. 907a/b changeovers. (Process explanation by P. Huntoon). The first note is graded 65 PPQ and the next is 66 PPQ.

The census indicates only seven small notes reported, with this being the last example of this variety offered when it realized $5,462.50 in our November 2003 sale. At that time it was listed as VG; PMG has since called it Fine 12. It's still a well used, evenly circulated example that only shows one other serial number that was sold as an UNC in 1991 and 2000. All of these factors make evaluation difficult, to say the least.

There are multiple tears and pieces replaced. Earlier CGA called this a "40" while I'm sure they mentioned damage, although the census doesn't. I would love to restore this properly, just to see it finished.

A scarce $50 Red Seal from Minneapolis. It's the "b" variety of which 18 serial numbers are reported. We sold an XF 45 for $20,700 in March 2007, and since then we sold two PCGS XF 40s for $6,325 and $10,925, both in 2009. the market has certainly improved since that time and I expect considerable interest for this good looking PMG 30. There were none of these available in the "Perfect Storm".

The census indicates 18 serial numbers reported for the Dallas $50 and only a single note is graded as high as XF; there are four in VF. I like the grade of VF 20 that PMG has assigned this note. During the "Perfect Storm" in 2008 a PMG VF 25 realized $27,600, but a year later a PCGS VF 25 realized $3,910. Times change and will continue to do so.

I am a bit surprised that this note didn't grade VF 20 based on others I've seen but that just means I like its look. It's well centered with good color and solid red seal.

Here is a great new addition to the census. This is only the sixth recorded serial number for this signature combination, Burke-Glass, on a $500 Federal Reserve Note. This example is graded VF 20 Net by PMG and although it has the appearance of an evenly circulated example there is restoration that strengthens that look. The note has excellent centering and color, constant with the grade. There are no printing figures reported for these various districts. In 2007 a PCGS VF 20 realized $39,000, and in 2008 a PMG 25 brought $48,875, while the other offered was a "6" at $7,475, also in 2008.

The paper quality retains lots of body and the color is excellent, as well as the centering, although there has been a professional restoration in a tiny spot near the margin.

It is always exciting to be able to offer such an affordable and exciting note as the Ch. UNC $1,000 1918 FRN. The census indicates a total of 52 $1,000 San Francisco notes and 152 in all grades and all districts which certainly is not many, especially when only 20 are indicated to be UNC. The vignettes are wonderful and the color and centering seem to indicate a higher grade. The current bid on the Green Sheet is $75,000, but I cannot find any sale of UNC notes in nearly four years. I feel this quality of material is up for some serious demand so it's a great opportunity to fill this spot in your collection with a fabulous note. The PCGS population report shows they have graded a single 65 PPQ, two 64 PPQs and two 64s. That's great company to be in for one of the finest known.

Its debut was in a CAA auction in January 1998 where the description read as follows, "This magnificent Technicolor Twenty boasts a stunning array of brilliant hues on its face. Utterly unmolested and with deep original embossing, it's broadly margined all the way around. This note is the sheet-mate of the Superb Gem we sold in our September Cincinnati sale. This gorgeous note would also grade Superb were it not for a series of six minuscule gutter folds at the right side of the top margin." If it is natural surfaces you seek, look no further as this note is sure to please." Further comment by PCGS says, "Our graders concurred that these were as-made paper flaws at the top right and not cuts, nicks or tears."

It happens so often after a great collection appears that a wonder note or two appear shortly thereafter. I'm shocked that it happened on this early bank as new examples rarely appear from this era. This bank was not around for very long and both earlier banks were out early as well. The bank was chartered in 1871 and was liquidated in 1877. They only issued Original Series notes, $1, $2, $5, $10 and $20, with just 9,008 total sheets printed. Pen signatures are Lamberton, President and Cummings, Cashier.

I don't know exactly how these beautiful #1 notes came out but they did and it's been a long time. Last March we sold a similar note for $9,200 in heated bidding. Before that it was 2004 when we offered another and two years before that the Type 2 #1-6 sheet realized $23,000. What I am saying is these are great and in demand.

This note was obtained by Roman Latimer in 1973 from Bob Medlar. Roman always called this his dollar down and a dollar a month note. Bob allowed Roman to give him a down payment and pay off the rest when he could. A month after Roman obtained it from Bob, he offered me $1,000 more than he paid for it as he wanted to go after Brown Backs from all States and Territories.

This is a very nice looking VF with excellent stamped signatures along with great color and centering. From the Power Collection, at $1,150, where it was described as, "Massillon is located in Stark County, on the Tuscarawas River. The first area that was settled in what would become Massillon was settled in 1812 by a sheep farmer and his wife, who shortly opened a wool mill. Upon the opening of the Ohio and Erie Canal, Massillon became known as the Port of Massillon, primarily exporting wheat. After the arrival of the railroad, Massillon began its steady growth, supporting such industries as pig-iron, glass, and coal mining. Massillon was not officially incorporated until 1853, as a village. This is another rather available bank, provided you don't want a $5 Brown Back. Your choices for that type are this note or the other one. A beautiful "Saloon" layout. Second seal. Group 3. Plate date 4/15/90".

Here is a wonderful new addition for what was a previously unknown large size charter. This is a pleasing, evenly circulated note that has good color, albeit a bit toned and somewhat uneven. The clear pen signatures enhance this piece. There has been a professional restoration on a corner but it's so good I don't remember which one. An earlier edition of Kelly indicated two large notes reported but probably with unverified serial numbers. Now I believe that may be more accurate.

Penbrook, NB, E9344
This note was previously described as, "A nice looking Fine with good margins all around and bold brown pen signatures. A very rare Dauphin County bank near Harrisburg, liquidated in 1920 after only 11 years of operation. Kelly lists just two notes known. The Gengerke sales records shows only one public sale in 60 years - a $10 Date Back in identical condition was sold by Hickman & Oakes in 1981. That note was described as having a half inch tear at the bottom of the center fold. This is probably that note, as a strong glass reveals a superbly repaired split at that position (although a 3 mm margin split left of it has curiously not been touched). Regardless of whether this is the 1981 note or its twin, this is a very rare opportunity for the advanced Pennsylvania specialist". This earlier description is still accurate. From R.M. Smythe, 7/02.
