Lot #1000 - Miscellaneous Items - ($ 25.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Alaska Resort Money
Mr. Fails a-lot has chosen our error note but rather than create an error they have written that it was an error note. We freeze our marshmellows over our freeze pit - Free polar bear legs - free ice swimming.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1001 - Miscellaneous Items - ($ 25.00 - $ 2,500.00)

Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1002 - Miscellaneous Items - ($ 25.00 - $ 2,500.00)
$5 Hawaiian Tiki God Dollars
This note was created by a student of the Dutton Elementary School in 2011. It's very colorful and the design includes a Tiki God with a surf board at the left, guitar at the right and a background of palm trees and flowers. A lovely Hawaiian issue.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53   
Lot #1003 - Miscellaneous Items - ($ 25.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Nasadaco 1 Crown
Obviously this is a pirate treasury note backed by two chests of treasures. The back shows two palm trees under which the treasure must have been found. Shows solid backing for its fiscal policy.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1004 - Miscellaneous Items - ($ 25.00 - $ 2,500.00)
$9 Black Beauty FRN 2011
Black Beauty is the central vignette on both face and back on this $9 FRN from the ninth district. Very well done.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1005 - Continental Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
CC-6 $6 May 10, 1775
A very attractive example from this first Continental emission. PCGS notes minor adhesive remnants on face. If you can find them you've got us beat since we cannot locate any problems. It looks like a lovely XF and will likely sell as such.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40   
Lot #1006 - Continental Currency - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
CC-22 $2/3 February 17, 1776
We see a double center fold on this Fugio Fractional denomination note that appears as if it could have easily landed in an XF holder. Bright, well-signed and numbered with the popular sundial with "Mind Your Business" motto. In our Memphis sale, we sold a $1/6 note in this same grade for $747.50.
Grade: PMG Ch. VF 35   
Lot #1007 - Continental Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-22 $2/3 February 17, 1776
This Fugio Fractional Continental note has far fewer folds than what we typically associate with a lower end VF grade.
Grade: PCGS VF 25   
Lot #1008 - Continental Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 525.00)
CC-51 $6 November 2, 1776 Benjamin Levy Signature
This wholesome Continental note appears to have a vertical center fold and an upper sheet fold. Broad margins are seen on all sides and the centering is excellent. Of greatest importance is the signature of Benjamin Levy, the only Jewish signer of Continental Currency. His is avidly collected and always greatly adds to the value of any note that he has blessed with his presence.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1009 - Continental Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
CC-66 $5 May 20, 1777
This May 1777 issue is second in scarcity only behind the fabled Yorktown issue of April 1778. PCGS notes edge splits and an inscription on back. What makes this note of particular interest is that the date has been skillfully changed to May 26, 1777.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20   
Lot #1010 - Continental Currency - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
CC-85 $50 September 26, 1778 Contemporary Counterfeit
A wonderfully margined and perfectly centered example of this popular contemporary counterfeit. The signatures and print quality are superb and the note looks like a Gem in every way. Nice Continental counterfeits usually sell for as much as the genuine notes and we are sure this one will make a real splash.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63   
Lot #1011 - Continental Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-86 $60 September 26, 1778
A pretty Continental that is lightly circulated and deeply embossed.
Grade: PMG Ch. XF 45   
Lot #1012 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CC-99 $60 January 14, 1779
A wonderfully embossed and utterly fresh example of this later Continental note. PCGS notes a small edge tear at right. If you have been paying attention in recent months you will have noticed that quality examples with eye appeal and minor problems bring almost as much as if they were problem-free.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50   
Lot #1013 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CT-130 1 Shilling March 26, 1761
An incredible rarity that should not be overlooked by anybody that fashions himself as a devotee of Colonial paper money. Any Connecticut note of a pre-1770 issuance is one of only a handful that can be recalled in recent years. We haven't sold one, Heritage hasn't sold one, and the only entry in Newman is a 40 shilling counterfeit sold by Stacks as part of the Ford collection, with that note bringing a four-figure price. PMG net grades this due to the note being backed and pieces sewn together with the bottom quarter or so of the note missing. The all-important coat of arms and the date are clearly visible. We are not sure what type of price this will bring but it would not surprise us to see it in the thousands.
Grade: PMG Good 4 Net   
Lot #1014 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CT-164 2 Shillings 6 Pence October 10, 1771 Uncancelled
PCGS notes some splits and tape repairs but this uncancelled beauty is very desirable because it has that desired combination of rarity and grade. Newman lists this at $1,000 in VF and while that is probably a little optimistic it's not that far off track.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20   
Lot #1015 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
CT-165 5 Shillings October 10, 1771 Slash Cancel
This is a much scarcer early Connecticut issue and even with being slash cancelled and having some minor problems (splits, sewn together, tape repair) it has a lot of value. A super low serial number 36 adds greatly to the desirability of this note and we should mention that this denomination seems to appear with far less frequency than most of the others. Newman values this at $1,000 in VF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25   
Lot #1016 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
CT-175 5 Shilling January 2, 1775 Slash Cancel
An impressive example of this slash cancelled note that has deep embossing and excellent print quality. PCGS notes small edge splits which are seen at the sides of the centerfold. Notes from the January 1775 issue is definitely quite a bit scarcer than the common 1776 and 1780 notes. Newman lists this at $200 in VF with no higher grade given. Friedberg calls these rare in XF.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1017 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 175.00 - $ 325.00)
CT-176 10 Shilling January 2, 1775 Slash Cancel
An incredibly well-printed example of this scarcer January 1775 issue that has a slash cancel and some tape repaired edge splits along the centerfold. Newman values this at $200 in VF with no higher grade given. Friedberg calls these rare in XF.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 45   
Lot #1018 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
CT-184 6 Shillings June 1, 1775 Uncancelled
This is one of the nicest looking examples we have seen from this more desirable issue and, most importantly, the note is uncancelled. PCGS notes a small hole but this is trivial. Mountainous embossing, sublime printing quality and boldly penned signatures make this note a real treat that anyone would be proud to display. Newman prices this at $350 in XF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50   
Lot #1019 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CT-205 6 Pence June 19, 1776 Uncancelled
Just a hint of circulation is evident on this deeply embossed and boldly printed Colonial. Of the utmost importance is that this note is uncancelled and much scarcer as such. Newman values these at $400 in UNC and for a change he has this too low.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1020 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
CT-216 4 Pence October 11, 1777 Uncancelled
A little known fact among Colonial novices is that notes from this small change issue are probably the scarcest of all the 1775-1780 issues to be found in an uncancelled state. PMG has Net graded this due to faded numbers and serial number but that is more than compensated for the fact that this note has huge margins on all sides and excellent embossing. Newman values these at $300 in Ch. UNC.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 50 Net   
Lot #1021 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Connecticut Company Inspection Return
"Inspection return of the 7th Company of the 28th Connecticut Regiment Militia. Capt. Abel Hawley, Officer under Major Wilcoxson. Folded a couple of times with some minor ink erosion present. We aren't really sure what to make of it all but it's very interesting.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1022 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Connecticut Pay Table Committee July 10, 1781
The first item is a Connecticut Pay Table Committee form which is much scarcer than the typical Pay Table Office forms that we see. Signed by Nathan Ellis and unlisted in Anderson. The second item validates his service in the Revolutionary War. An intriguing pairing that is loaded with Colonial history.
Grade: XF   
Lot #1023 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Connecticut Treasury Office Transfer Certificate January 14, 1790
An interesting treasury office certificate with accounting table computations. The typeset date 1789 has been crossed out and 1790 handwritten in its place. The treasurer's signature has been crossed out and this item certified the transfer of old notes for new notes. Anderson Price of Liberty catalog number CT-27. We have rarely seen these offered for sale and are sure this will be well-received.
Grade: AU   
Lot #1024 - Colonial Currency > Delaware - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
DE34 2 Shilling 6 Pence January 1, 1753
Simply a rare note no matter how you slice it and the first Delaware issue where David Hall joined Benjamin Franklin. PCGS notes splits, pinned and backed but who cares? The Newman plate note is hardly nicer looking than this one and is also replete with problems. Do not be surprised to see our estimate prove to be conservative. No value is given in Newman and Friedberg calls this very rare.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fair 2   
Lot #1025 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
MD-68 $4 April 10, 1774
An astounding example from this common Maryland issue from which Ch. CU notes are very scarce and legitimate Gems are absolutely rare. This note appears to have it all; huge margins on all sides (including a nearly full left indent), stunning print quality, thick and boldly executed signatures and mountainous embossing. If ever there were a note from this issue that looks like a Gem this is it. Newman lists this at $250 in XF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1026 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
MD-70 $8 April 10, 1774
A full left indent is seen on this crisp and very well-signed Maryland Colonial. Newman values this at $250 in XF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53   
Lot #1027 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 325.00 - $ 475.00)
MD-70 $8 April 10, 1774
A gorgeous Maryland Colonial note that has superb margins and wonderful print quality. A nearly full left indent is also noticed along with a couple light folds.
Grade: AU   
Lot #1028 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
MD-96 $1 August 14, 1776
The August 1776 Maryland issue is far scarcer than the commonly seen 1774 notes. This one has bold signatures and far fewer folds than what is typically seen on a low end VF. Newman values this at $400 in VF.
Grade: PCGS VF 20   
Lot #1029 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
MD-98 $2 August 14, 1776
Even with Colonial notes the $2 denomination has always had an allure with collectors. This issue is much scarcer than the commonly seen 1774 notes which is confirmed by Newman's valuation of $400 in VF.
Grade: PCGS VF 20   
Lot #1030 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 3,500.00 - $ 7,000.00)
MA-142 10 Shillings May 25, 1775
On its own merits this is a highly desirable copperplate note engraved by Paul Revere, great Revolutionary patriot. It is amply margined with good printing quality although it has splits and has been backed. The note carries the appearance of a full VF. What is not mentioned on the PCGS holder is what makes this note so special. All of the examples this cataloger can recall having seen were either hole-cancelled or pen-cancelled over Henry Gardner's signature. This example has neither and is the only one we can locate in such a state. Newman lists this at $4,000 in Fine and $7,000 in VF but those are for pen-cancelled notes. We strongly suspect that this will bring far more in its present state.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15   
Lot #1031 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
MA-232 4 Shillings October 18, 1776
PCGS notes some repaired splits but what isn't noted is how scarce this note really is. The note was printed with face plates engraved by Paul Revere and the backs were engraved by John Gill. Newman lists this at $375 in Fine.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 12   
Lot #1032 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
MA-279 $2 May 5, 1780 Uncancelled
Uncancelled Massachusetts notes from this issue are legitimately scarce items and but for a couple of small repaired edge splits this note has a lot to offer. Through the holder it looks at least XF.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 35   
Lot #1033 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
MA-279 $2 May 5, 1780 Pen Cancelled
Ninety-eight percent of the notes from this issue are cancelled with the quarter-sized hole in the middle. Very few examples were ever pen cancelled and are actually quite scarce as such. A terrific VF/XF note that is signed on the back by Peter Boyer. A lovely note that should be very well-received as we had a similar Ch. AU example bring $431.25 in our Memphis sale.
Grade: PCGS VF 30   
Lot #1034 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
MA-281 $4 May 5, 1780 Pen Cancelled
Ninety-eight percent of the notes from this issue are cancelled with the quarter-sized hole in the middle. Very few examples were ever pen cancelled and are actually quite scarce as such. A lovely near XF note with the signature of Peter Boyer on the back. We sold a lovely Ch. AU example in our Memphis sale for $431.25.
Grade: PCGS VF 35   
Lot #1035 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Commonwealth of Massachusetts Treasury Certificate January 1, 1782
A lovely example with the "B" of borrowed boxed and a small hole cancel. Both signed by Hodgdon and Dawes. "Two Years Interest Paid" written vertically in red ink at left. This certificate shows that interest is paid at 6% per annum. Plenty of interesting numerical computations seen on the back. Anderson MA-31, with 21-30 estimated known.
Grade: AU   
Lot #1036 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Commonwealth of Massachusetts Treasury Certificates January 1, 1782
A consecutive pair with both having the "B" boxed and with a small hole cancel. Both signed by Hodgdon and Dawes. "Two Years Interest Paid" written vertically in red ink at left. Anderson MA-31, low R-6. Estimated 21-30 known. It's been a few years since we have seen any of these.
Grade: AU   
Lot #1037 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Massachusetts State Lottery Class the Fourth February 5, 1780
These were used to pay Massachusetts State lottery winners. Pen cancelled through the signature of Henry Gardner. Rattlesnake surrounded pine tree vignette. Anderson MA-16, high R-6, estimate 13-20 known. A lovely example that is one of the nicest that we can recall having seen.
Grade: VF/XF   
Lot #1038 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
State of Massachusetts Bay 150 Pound Treasury Certificate J July 20, 1779
Pen cancelled over the signature of Henry Gardner. Advanced Pay to Officer Second Moiety. Always popular pine tree vignette surrounded by rattlesnake. Anderson MA-19, low R-6, estimate 21-30 known. A clean and very attractive example that is not seen very often.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1039 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
State of Massachusetts 75 Pound Treasury Certificate July 20, 1779
Advanced Pay to Officer Second Moiety at 6% interest. Pen cancelled through Gardner's signature. Pine tree vignette surrounded by rattlesnake at upper left. Fully margined and incredibly attractive for the grade. MA-19 in Anderson's Price of Liberty and listed as low R-6 with estimate of 21-30 known.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1040 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
NH-50 100 Shillings April 1, 1737 Redated August 7, 1740 Cohen Reprint
An exceptional example of this popularly collected Cohen reprint. These were reprinted c. 1850s from the original plates and therefore have neither signatures nor serial number. An essentially flawless example that should be very well-received by the collecting community. We have routinely seen AU examples bring close to three-figure prices.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ   
Lot #1041 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
NJ-95 6 Shillings June 22, 1756
Most every denomination from 1 Shilling up to 15 Shillings is common since these survived in sheet form, all that is except for the 6 Shillings note. PCGS notes damage, piece at top right replaced and redrawn which is certainly true but well executed. This note is serial #252 and its consecutive note, #253, sold at the FUN sale earlier this year. That note graded PCGS Apparent VF 35 and brought $690. This is by far the highest graded example we have ever encountered and are patiently awaiting it to cross the four-figure mark.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50   
Lot #1042 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NJ-111 30 Shillings November 20, 1757
Listed in Friedberg simply as "rare" with Newman pricing this at $500 in VF. An unusual issue since the highest pound denominated notes are the ones that survived en masse with these lower denomination examples rarely being saved. PCGS notes edge splits but they are trivial.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25   
Lot #1043 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
NJ-118 6 Pound May 1, 1758
This is easily the nicest example of this very scarce note that we have ever encountered. Serial #1156 out of a printing of 1,834. PCGS notes restorations, mounting damage and design redrawn on back. This note is stunning in every regard as when these are seen they are typically ratty-looking VG or worse with numerous problems. Newman values this at $750 with no higher grade given and we would be shocked if this note didn't meet or exceed our conservative estimate.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25   
Lot #1044 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NJ-126 3 Pound October 20, 1758
Another spectacularly rare example from 1758 except the October issue is seen with far less frequency than its May counterpart. With a printing of only 500 notes for this denomination you can clearly see why we are frothing at the mouth over this note which only has some center fold edge splits given as the reason for the apparent grade. Newman values this at $700 in VG and $1,000 in Fine and we think he's right on the money.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VG 10   
Lot #1045 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
NJ-153 18 Pence December 31, 1763
This Plate D example has PTATE misspelled and is scarcer with only 2,500 printed. The note remains very well-signed with just a whisper of a center fold present.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1046 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
NJ-167 30 Shillings April 16, 1764
An exceptional quality note from a much scarcer and underrated New Jersey issue. Most of these 1750s and 1760s issues from the Garden State are so underappreciated that it makes your cataloger somber. PCGS notes a reinforced center split and mounting remnants and scuffs on the back.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25   
Lot #1047 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
NJ-175 1 Shilling March 25, 1776
While this is certainly the most common issue from Colonial New Jersey they don't often come like this. Gigantic margins are seen on all sides with picture perfect centering. Spectacular printing quality and robust signatures and serial number are complemented by mountainous embossing. A gorgeous Colonial worthy of anyone's high-grade 13 Colony type set.
Grade: PMG Superb Gem UNC 67 EPQ   
Lot #1048 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
NJ-176 18 Pence March 25, 1776
This is nothing short of a stunning example for the grade. Behemoth margins are found on all sides with the centering virtually dead-on. A boldly signed example with embossing piled high throughout the fresh paper surfaces. With AU notes bringing a solid $250 or so these days, we figure a note graded Ch. UNC that looks like a Superb Gem should bring multiples of that.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63 EPQ   
Lot #1049 - Colonial Currency > New York - ($ 850.00 - $ 1,350.00)
NY-153 5 Pounds April 15, 1758
An extremely scarce note no matter how you slice it. PCGS notes backed with some repaired edge tears but when these are seen it is almost always with some problems. With a printing of only 4,000, the 5 Pound denomination is by far the scarcer of the two for this issue and auction appearances are few and far between. The only listing in Newman is an example graded UNC that brought over $5,000 in a 2004 Stacks sale.
Grade: PCGS Fine 12   
Lot #1050 - Colonial Currency > New York - ($ 850.00 - $ 1,350.00)
NY-155 2 Pounds April 2, 1759
A satisfying example of an extremely scarce denomination. PCGS notes edge splits and tears, repairs. We have only seen one or two 2 Pound notes over the years while the 5 Pound and 10 Pound notes are far more plentiful. The printing figures are misleading because it is obvious that this lowest denomination note had a survival rate next to nothing while the higher denomination notes circulated less freely. Unpriced in Newman in any grade and worthy of consideration for your advanced Colonial collection.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15   
Lot #1051 - Colonial Currency > New York - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
NY-156 5 Pounds April 2, 1759
A bright and wonderfully margined example of this scarcer 1759 issue from which notes are rarely seen in solid VF or better grade. PCGS notes a small hole and some edge splits and tears but this is an almost universal truth when dealing with these early New York Colonials. Wonderfully signed and fresh. The only listing in Newman is an AU note that brought $4,600 in a 2004 Stacks sale.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25   
Lot #1052 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
NC-78 15 Shillings March 9, 1754
Fully signed with four signatures, but cut crazy.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1053 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
NC-112 3 Pounds July 14, 1760
A much scarcer and very desirable example of the highest denomination from this issue. PCGS notes edge splits and tears of which we notice two, both at the top and the bottom of the center fold. A bright and very well-signed example that should be well received. There were only 1,000 printed of this denomination which explains the Newman value of $400 in VF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40   
Lot #1054 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
NC-124 20 Shillings April 23, 1761
A glorious example of this tougher issue which has edge splits and tears, although truthfully we only can find one at the bottom of the center fold. Bright and very well-signed with nearly full ornamentation, this note should be quite a catch for one lucky bidder. Newman values these at $400 in VF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 45   
Lot #1055 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
NC-125 30 Shillings April 23, 1761
Bright paper and healthy surfaces make this a real eye catcher of a Colonial note. PCGS notes some pinholes and a repaired center split but they do little to hinder the visual impact of this note. Serial #132 is actually quite low.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30   
Lot #1056 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
NC-132 40 Shillings December 1768
This is a superb grade example for this always desirable 1768 issue as AU notes are very scarce and uncirculated examples essentially unknown. PCGS notes a single edge split at the top of the center fold. But for that, the paper is bright, the signatures bold, and the embossing easily visible. A truly special note for the Colonial enthusiast. Newman values these at $400 in VF with nothing better.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50   
Lot #1057 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NC-136a 2 Shillings 6 Pence December 1771
An absolutely flawless example with some of the freshest and brightest paper you will find. While the grade on this note is common enough what makes this so special is the lack of the ubiquitous bundle hole at the top of the note. The reason these 1771 notes so often come in high grade is that there were many sheets bundled together and this denomination was always at the top of the sheet. For that reason, 99% of the 2 Shillings/6 Pence notes that you see will have a hole at the top of the note; this one does not.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1058 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
2 Shillings 6 Pence, 1 Pound, 10 Shillings December 1771 Uncut Sheet of Three Notes
Simply a fantastic example of this uncut sheet of three 1771 North Carolina Colonials. All three notes have oversized margins, perfect paper quality and bold embossing. The chop up value for this sheet is $600-$800 but the sheet will be worth more intact. In our recent July internet sale we sold a similar example in the same grade for over $1,000.

Lot #1059 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
NC-138 10 Shillings December 1771
While notes from this issue are certainly available up through the Gem grade, Superb Gem examples are quite scarce and virtually all of those only grade "67." This gorgeous note has achieved the grade of PCGS Superb Gem New 68 PPQ which puts it right at the top of the condition census. There isn't anything to say to the detriment of this piece; the margins are huge, the centering perfect and everything pertaining to the paper quality is utterly flawless. Do not be surprised when you see this lovely note make some pricing history once the hammer falls.

For those of you who are dismayed at missing out on the 10 Shillings note in super high grade you need to quickly regain your composure as here is another example to satisfy your collecting hunger. Another essentially flawless example that will instantly catapult anyone's 13 Colony type set into the pantheon of Colonial sets.

Lot #1061 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
NC-142 3 Pounds December 1771
Leviathan margins and astounding printing quality are seen on this higher denomination note which bears the vignette of the Magna Charta. PCGS notes a repaired edge tear at top left which makes this one of the nicest examples we have seen. With only 3,000 printed, this note is several times scarcer than its lower denomination cousins.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40   
Lot #1062 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
NC-143 5 Pounds December 1771
With only 2,000 printed, this highest denomination is also the scarcest for the issue. PCGS notes some small repaired edge splits but they are virtually invisible and of no consequence. If you can show your cataloger another 5 Pound note that looks nicer than this one I will shake your hand. Newman values this at $500 in XF and he is likely right on the money.

Lot #1063 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
NC-162b $5 Triton April 2, 1776
Truly a riveting and awe-inspiring series of notes; only two complete collections have ever been formed so far as we know. This Triton note has huge margins and great printing along with a boldly printed vignette. PCGS notes edge splits and tears. Newman values this at $1,000 in VF with no higher grade given.

Lot #1065 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NC-176d $5 August 8, 1778
"The Rising States" is the motto seen on this single-folded North Carolina Colonial. The paper retains its original crispness and the margins are full to superb on all sides. Newman lists this at $500 in XF with no higher grade given.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53 PPQ   
Lot #1066 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
PA-143 10 Shillings March 10, 1769
No asterisk after date. The casual observer might wonder what this note is doing here but the Colonial savant is well aware of its presence. PCGS notes edge splits and minor paper pulls on back, both of which do little to affect the eye appeal. This higher denomination note has a meager printing of only 1,000 with Newman valuing it at $2,000 in Fine with no higher grade given. Bright, broadly margined and boldly signed this is one of the nicest examples we can recall having seen.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20   
Lot #1067 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
PA-170 50 Shillings October 1, 1773
An absolutely gorgeous example for the grade as these columned Pennsylvania notes don't often come like this. It has three of the boldest signatures you will find and the paper is cardboard crisp and fresh. AU examples have routinely become a $200 or more item and Newman lists this at $800 in Ch. CU.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1068 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
PA-183 6 Pence October 25, 1775
A stunning example of this small change note that looks like a screaming gem in every way but for a tighter left margin. The paper is incredibly fresh and crisp with bold signature and serial number. Newman values this at $750 in Ch. UNC but as strong as prices have been for this colony we would not be surprised to see that valuation met.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63   
Lot #1069 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
PA-192 20 Shillings October 25, 1775
This columned Pennsylvania note has extraordinary margins compared to most for this issue. Three bold signatures make it hard to believe that this didn't earn the EPQ designation and some minor evidence of circulation accounts for the grade.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 50   
Lot #1070 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
PA-201 1 Shilling April 25, 1776
The technical grade is accurate as there appear to be a couple of corner folds and some minor mounting remnants on the back. The eye appeal of this note is simply not to be questioned as it has that "fresh from the sheet" look; the printing quality is unbelievable and the signatures look as if they were applied this morning. Notes such as this always go well beyond any technical assessment and valuation that one tries to conjure.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1071 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
PA-202 18 Pence April 25, 1776
Essentially identical to the 1 Shilling note both in terms of technical grade and eye appeal. This isn't surprising since it has the same serial number and therefore came from the same sheet. PCGS notes the upper right corner tip has been replaced and redrawn but if you can see it your eyesight is exceptional. A superlative example that will fit nicely into anyone's collection.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1072 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
PA-219a 8 Shillings April 10, 1777
Printed in black. These higher denomination notes are scarcer than their small change cousins from this issue. This one has great printing quality with excellent originality and wonderful eye appeal. Newman values this at $500 in UNC and this gorgeous piece might very well tempt that figure.

Pennsylvania Interest Bearing Certificate August 17, 1780

Lot #1075 - Colonial Currency > Rhode Island - ($ 3,500.00 - $ 7,000.00)
RI-290 6 Pence May 1786
This is as close to perfect as PCGS has come to grading any Colonial and we believe that PMG has never assigned a grade this high. We hate to wax poetic (ok so that's not exactly true) but this note is well deserving of all the accolades it receives. The note has perfect centering both top to bottom and left to right. The paper is as bright and deeply embossed as if it were printed this morning and the bold printing contrast is a showstopper. What miniscule nuance pertaining to this note that could make it perfect is anyone's guess as it appears to the naked eye to already be in that league. In our 2012 CPMX sale we sold the only other 69 PPQ graded Colonial, a note also from this issue, for $5,462.50. This note is every bit as deserving as that one of reaching a solid four-figure price.

Hulking margins and crackerjack embossing are found on this wonderfully signed Colonial. A pretty note whose value should transcend that of the typical, tightly margined "New 62."

Lot #1078 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
SC-99 10 Pounds June 1, 1775
A very attractive example of this condition-challenged issue that has great print quality and the motto ET DEUS OMNIPOTENS (And Almighty God). PCGS notes edge splits and center split repaired, comments which apply to virtually all notes from this issue. Newman values this at $1,000 in VF with no higher grade given.

Lot #1079 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
SC-108 20 Shillings November 15, 1775
A very scarce issue and the 20 Shillings is very difficult to come by as we haven't seen one in several years. PCGS notes edge splits and tears and backing. A highly desirable example that lists for $750 in Fine in Newman and to me this note very well could eclipse that mark.

Lot #1081 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
SC-141 $8 December 23, 1776 Fully Signed
A very attractive AU example of this popular South Carolina Colonial that is very well-margined for the type. PMG notes a pen annotation but it is on the back and out of the way. Four signatures and serial number are seen on this fully signed note which Newman values at $750 in XF and $1,500 in UNC.

Lot #1082 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 3,000.00 - $ 6,000.00)
SC-154 $50 February 8, 1779
Uncut Pair. We have only seen a couple of other uncut pairs of Coram notes as they are a legitimately scarce item. This example shows on the back the mythical figure, Atlas, holding a boulder. PCGS notes there are stains, mounting remnants, damage and writing in ink. This lovely pair of notes are both well-signed with a fold between the notes and a broad corner fold in each. We rarely see these with gigantic margins like this since very few two note sheets survived. With AU examples routinely reaching four-figure prices and Newman valuing these at $3,500 in UNC, we are expecting some real fireworks by the time the hammer falls tonight.

SC-154 $50 February 8, 1779
Although the left margin is tight this is an enormously margined and wonderfully signed note engraved by Thomas Coram. With the mythological representations found on the back of these notes (this one shows Atlas holding a boulder) this has always been an extremely popular issue with collectors.

Lot #1084 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
SC-157 $80 February 8, 1779
This is a beautiful note printed by Thomas Coram that has boldly penned signatures, bright paper and excellent centering. AU examples of this issue often sell around $2,000 and we see no reason why this note shouldn't either. Newman values this at $2,500 in XF and $5,000 in UNC.

VA-77b 20 Shillings July 17, 1775 Large Format
This is a very attractive example of the large format Ashby note that has some edge and internal splits. Printed on thin paper and easily damaged this is one of the nicer examples we have seen. Newman lists this at $750 in Fine and $1,500 in VF.

Lot #1088 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
VA-129 $8 October 20, 1777
We rarely see examples of this 1777 Virginia issue in this grade and its even more rare to see them with this much eye appeal. A strictly uncirculated example with no folds whatsoever. Bold printing and even bolder signatures are seen. Gigantic margins by anyone's definition and perfectly centered on all four sides. A little toning in the right margin appears to be all that precludes this note from a solid Gem grade. Newman lists this at $900 in UNC but that is laughable since you are hard-pressed to find another.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63   
Lot #1089 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
VA-170 $100 May 3, 1779
For this large format issue, only the $50 and $100 denominations are seen with any regularity; the five lower denominations are crushingly rare. This gorgeous note is bright and well-signed with the look of a solid XF. PCGS notes some tape repaired edge and internal splits but they are very well hidden. Newman values this at $3,000 in VF with no higher grade given. A very underrated series in your cataloger's opinion.

Lot #1090 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
VA-194 $300 October 16, 1780
Intriguing serial #3366. These rice paper notes are virtually always filled with problems although this one is minor compared to most. PCGS notes large edge split at bottom right and some minor ink erosion. Well-signed and very bright with great margins. Newman values this at $225 in VF and $550 in XF.

Lot #1091 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
VA-222 $1,000 May 7, 1781
A beautiful example of this higher denomination example which is both scarce and desirable. PCGS notes damaged, multiple tape repairs and pieces replaced and redrawn. The eye appeal of this note is not to be questioned and its value is supported by the Newman assessment of $700 in XF with no higher grade given.

Lot #1093 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)

Lot #1096 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
T-10 $10 July 25, 1861
Near full frames are noted on this lovely T-10 note, a type that is often found in tatters with a plethora of problems. This one has an edge tear and another small edge tear. Problem-free VFs tempt the four-figure price range so we figure that one with a couple of very minor issues should sell for around half that amount.

CT-XXI $20 July 25, 1861 Female Riding Deer Bogus Note

A look at Tremmel's Guide Book of Counterfeit Confederate Currency shows this as CT-14/75B, a Rarity 8 and is listed at $475 in AU-UNC. This note is a bright and beautiful Ch. New example and utterly flawless but for a minor ink erosion tear at the bottom.

Lot #1100 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-16 $50 September 2, 1861
For a T-16 this note has gigantic margins and refreshingly bright paper and ink colors. Neatly cross-cut cancelled so as to not be particularly visible except when the note is candled. Another Confederate type note in this offering that is more common in Fine and lower end VF grades but which becomes decidedly scarce when one gets to XF or better.
Grade: PCGS VF 35   
Lot #1101 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)

Lot #1102 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
T-17 $20 September 2, 1861
An absolutely gorgeous example of this challenging T-17 note that is one of the nicest we have seen. Rarely seen in grades above VF and even more rarely with color and printing that remains this bold. PCGS notes minor mounting remnants on the back but we suspect they won't remain there for very long. In this grade a solid four-figure item to be sure.

Lot #1103 - Confederate Notes - ($ 175.00 - $ 325.00)

T-22 $10 September 2, 1861
Hole punch cancelled. Superb color remains on this abundantly margined T-22 note. There is an internal tear from the left cancel but it is difficult to see. A modestly circulated example with great eye appeal for the grade. An uncancelled example in this grade would be a low four-figure item and we would expect about half that much here tonight.

Lot #1108 - Confederate Notes - ($ 3,500.00 - $ 7,000.00)
T-23 $10 September 2, 1861
We rarely ever see T-23 notes that are this fresh and bright with bold signatures and exceptional printing. It is 100% fully framed and well margined at that. The orange overprint, which so often fades and oxidizes, remains as bright and colorful as the day this note was printed. PCGS notes a small repaired edge tear at top left of center but so what. If you have ever hunted for a T-23 for your collection and are looking for one that satisfies your craving for both high technical merit and wonderful aesthetics then you needn't look any further.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

T-24 $10 September 2, 1861
While it is true that there are some edge tears and repairs at the bottom of the note it does little to interfere with the visual impact possessed by this piece. A very bright and colorful example that has retained bold inking on the denomination symbols. The fact that it is fully framed only serves to increase its value.

Lot #1110 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
T-25 $10 September 2, 1861
A highly desirable example of this tougher T-25 type that is rarely seen in grades above VF. This one has boldly executed signatures and well above-average margins for the type. In our Memphis sale we sold a PCGS VF 20 for $316.25 and this one appears to be much nicer.

Lot #1111 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
T-25 $10 September 2, 1861 Cross-Cut Cancelled
Fully framed and with extremely bright paper surfaces. A moderately circulated example that has been neatly cross-cut cancelled. PCGS has noted there is a small internal tear at left. We had to perform a couple Labors of Hercules to find it as it is that small and unobtrusive, even when the note is held from both sides to a light source. We hate to sound like a broken record in this section of notes but these are rarely seen in XF or better grade which should make this note a welcome addition.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30

T-26 $10 September 2, 1861 Cross-Cut Cancelled
Although neatly cross-cut cancelled we would be remiss if we didn't tell you that this is a type that is really quite scarce in XF or better grade. The paper is as bright as a newly fallen snow and the aesthetic beauty beholden of this note is second to none.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1113 - Confederate Notes - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
T-26 $10 September 2, 1861
One of the prettiest T-26 notes we have ever seen at this grade level. Bright paper, cavernous embossing and superb color lend credence to this note's originality and PPQ designation. As sharply printed as they come and with "CSA" block print watermark. A type that is certainly available in Fine and lower end VF but when one is on the doorstep of XF the whole game changes.
Grade: PCGS VF 35 PPQ   
Lot #1114 - Confederate Notes - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
T-29 $10 September 2, 1861
A minor disservice performed by PCGS in the holdering process as the right margin is slightly rolled over; if reholdered and straightened out this would be a bright, well-signed and, most importantly, fully framed T-29 note. PCGS does note minor staining which is certainly true, but it is minor and it blends in well with the paper. This lovely example displays the two things that haunt most all other T-29s; it has both grade and aesthetics.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30   
Lot #1115 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
T-29 $10 September 2, 1861
T-29 is one of those types that is so difficult to locate with both technical grade and aesthetic appeal. This is just such a note. PMG has graded this VF 25 although it looks like a solid VF/XF note to this cataloger. What makes it so special is that it has full frame lines on all sides. This is a notoriously tightly margined type that to find a solid VF with full frame lines is a real surprise.
Grade: PMG VF 25   
Lot #1116 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)

T-31 $5 September 2, 1861
A broadly margined example of this desirable T-31 note that is a solid VF and which is most definitely deserving of the PPQ designation. The color is some of the best that we have seen for this type and the eye appeal afforded this note makes it one to be reckoned with. These are rarely seen above the VF grade.

Fully framed and with gigantic margins on all sides. Neatly cross-cut cancelled and with "CSA" scrip watermark. It is quite unusual to locate this type in XF or better grade and it is even more unusual to find a T-34 note with eye appeal such as this.
Grade: PCGS VF 35   
Lot #1121 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-36 $5 September 2, 1861
An appealing Confederate type that is certainly dirt common in F/VF grade ranges but which becomes far more elusive as you enter CU territory. The signatures remain bold and the printing quality is nothing short of exceptional.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1122 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-40 $100 October 22, 1862
A bright and boldly printed train note that has full frame lines on all sides and exceptionally broad margins for the type.

Lot #1123 - Confederate Notes - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
T-41 $100 December 18, 1862
Essentially a Superb Gem Hoer note that only falls a point short of that lofty grade. Gigantic margins, deep printing quality and superb originality make this a great example for type.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ   
Lot #1124 - Confederate Notes - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
T-41 $100 November 30, 1862
Interest-paid stamps from Montgomery, AL are found on the back of this extraordinarily well-printed Hoer note. As nice as most Gems we have encountered.

Lot #1125 - Confederate Notes - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
T-41 $100 November 20, 1862
Unbelievable margins and centering add to the value of this lightly handled T-41. It made a couple of passes through Knoxville on its way to Augusta near the end of the war. Do not expect this to sell for typical AU money.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #1126 - Confederate Notes - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
T-41 $100 December 15, 1862 San Antonio, TX
Issued in December 1862 in San Antonio, TX. Always a desirable location which should add several hundred dollars to the value of this mundane Hoer.
Grade: PMG XF 40   
Lot #1127 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-42 $2 June 2, 1862
Fully framed and with hulking margins on all sides. We never see T-42 notes that look like this and that have this type of grade. We see a harder fold and a light fold that account for the grade.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1128 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
T-42 $2 June 2, 1862
Shockingly another fully framed T-42 although not with the same margin size as the previous example. Very bright and well-signed with some light folds.
Grade: PMG XF 40   
Lot #1129 - Confederate Notes - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
T-42 $2 June 2, 1862 Plate 1/10 Mismatch Error
This is nothing short of a superb quality example of a very difficult PLEN error. Plate #1 is seen at left and plate #10 at right. Fricke calls this R-9, with a price of $325+ in VG/F. We have only seen a couple examples of this and the Kelly example grading Fine was the better of the two; that note brought $488.75 at the 2012 FUN sale. This note has a stain and an edge tear at right but the grade is far and away the best we can recall ever having seen. It is very well-margined and fully framed on all sides with otherwise bright paper and some light folds.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40   
Lot #1130 - Confederate Notes - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
T-43 $2 June 2, 1862
This T-43 has virtually everything to which a Confederate type note collector aspires. It has far above-average margins, bright paper, superb overprint color and nary a flaw to be seen anywhere. This is a type that is almost never seen in XF or better grade which makes this problem-free example a superb catch for one lucky bidder.
Grade: PCGS VF 30   
Lot #1131 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
T-43 $2 June 2, 1862
This is the much scarcer Confederate Deuce with the green "TWO" overprint. PMG has noted holes and repaired but the technical grade appears to be a solid VF. Fully framed on three sides which is much better than most we see. Serial #52000 is a nice round number.
Grade: PMG Fine 12 Net   
Lot #1132 - Confederate Notes - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
T-43 $2 June 2, 1862
Cr. 338, PF-1. Certainly a lovely example, just for the spindle hole in the portrait area of Judah Benjamin.
Grade: VF   
Lot #1133 - Confederate Notes - ($ 700.00 - $ 1,400.00)
T-44 $1 June 2, 1862
Yet another desirable Confederate type note in an uncommon grade. While these do certainly exist in this grade it often takes a lengthy search and lots of patience to obtain one. The paper is very bright and this note is long on visual impact.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1134 - Confederate Notes - ($ 2,750.00 - $ 4,250.00)
T-45 $1 June 2, 1862
This T-45 note has astounding quality for the type as it is fully uncirculated with bright paper and stunning green overprint. PCGS notes minor mounting remnants on back but since we can barely see them we're guessing that they would be easily removable. We almost never see examples in this grade as the average note grades VG/Fine or a little better. If you covet the best or close to it then don't let this opportunity pass you by.
Grade: PCGS Apparent New 62   
Lot #1135 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
T-46 $10 September 2, 1862 Cross-Cut Cancel
This is a spectacular example of the T-46 note that is most often seen in VF grade. It is fresh and bright with great color and bold signatures. Two neatly criss-cross cancels do little to affect the eye appeal of this lovely note. This is the variety with the corrected "Months." We cannot recall having ever seen one in this state of preservation and it is likely that you haven't either.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63   
Lot #1136 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
T-46 $10 September 2, 1862
Three behemoth margins and a top that bows inward at the right. Bright paper surfaces, stunning print quality and a modicum of light folds greatly attest to both the near XF technical grade as well as the application of the coveted PPQ designation. Yet another type that we don't often see in XF or better grade.
Grade: PCGS VF 35 PPQ   
Lot #1137 - Confederate Notes - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
T-50 $50 December 2, 1862
Cross-cut cancelled. Even though this has some minor stains it is such a bright and attractive example of this type that it is included in this main sale. It's not so often that we see fully framed, broadly margined T-50 notes so we realize that collectors snatch them up when available.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30   
Lot #1138 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 2,000.00)
T-55 $1 December 2, 1862
Although PCGS does not have a Confederate Currency Population Report we are certain that this note is at or near the top. Heritage has never sold a Gem and neither have we. Fricke notes that it is common in all grades, including Ch. CU but with patience. This is the first legitimate Gem that we can recall having seen and we've seen plenty of notes over the years. Bright paper, bold signatures and excellent margins are seen for a type that often comes poorly margined. Presumably a later plate state as the right plate letter "B" is properly shaded but the left plate letter is a shadow of its former self.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ   
Lot #1139 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-56 $100 April 6, 1863
A very bright, fully framed and simply beautiful example of this T-56 note. A little bit of handling at the corners appears to be all that keeps a far better grade out of reach.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #1140 - Confederate Notes - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
T-57 $50 April 6, 1863 Cross-Cut Cancelled
Nice T-57s are not as available as they once were. This cross-cut cancelled example has some minor handling that keeps it from the CU grade but the paper remains as fresh and bright as the day it was printed.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55 PPQ   
Lot #1141 - Confederate Notes - ($ 275.00 - $ 425.00)
T-59 $10 April 6, 1863
Incredible grade for this type. Bright paper and bold signatures add greatly to the visual impact of this note.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1142 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-62 $1 April 6, 1863
Fully framed and very scarce as such. Deep pink paper color and thick signatures make this note really premium for the Ch. New grade. In our July sale we sold a similar example, a PCGS Ch. New (without PPQ) for $460 and this one is just as nice.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1143 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
T-64 $500 February 17, 1864
A sub-5000 serial number and somewhat darker red overprint make this single denomination Confederate type note a real treat. These have gained rapidly in popularity over the past year or two largely on the efforts of telemarketers.
Grade: PCGS VF 30   
Lot #1144 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 600.00)

T-65 $100 February 17, 1864 Havana Counterfeit
High-grade Havana counterfeits are extremely sought after in today's marketplace. We have seen two recently, a Ch. New 63 PPQ at $288 and a Very Ch. New 64 PPQ at $402.50. The present example is far nicer with behemoth margins, great color and flawless paper.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ   
Lot #1146 - Confederate Notes - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
T-65 $100 February 17, 1864

Lot #1147 - Confederate Notes - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)

Lot #1148 - Confederate Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
T-70 $2 February 17, 1864
We do not often like to argue with the assessment of the grading services but, in this instance, let's just say this is certainly the nicest "64 PPQ" Confederate type note that we have probably ever seen. Absolutely gigantic margins are seen on all four sides. Couple that with bright paper color and sublime printing quality and you have the makings of a real wonder note. The estimate may seen a little adventurous for the assigned grade but is right in line for the note itself.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1149 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)

Not listed in "Indiana Obsolete Notes & Scrip" by Wolka, Vorhies, and Schramm, with no listing for either the town or merchant found. There is a green under-print across the entire front of note, with a portrait of George Washington at left, a single barrel vignette at bottom center, and two barrels at upper right. There is a reference in "History of Vigo and Parke County", published in 1880, that lists a Col. E.M. Benson as a prominent Montezuma merchant since 1846, and having been partners with John G. Davis in a successful business for 17 years, with Col. Benson continuing in the operation once their partnership was dissolved. Certainly a note for any advanced collector of Indiana scrip.

Lot #1206 - Fractional Currency - ($ 2,000.00 - $ 4,000.00)
10c Fiber Paper Experimental Second Issue
Rare uncancelled state. Fine paper fibers are seen on this gorgeous experimental back that has T-1-18-63 surcharges (like Fr. 1249) and on the back a large bronze oval. The paper is fresh and bright with embossing clearly visible and the ink colors bright. A lovely piece which certainly seems like an admirable candidate for the Gem grade. In Ford XIX, lot 236, there was an identical example of this type graded Ch. Abt. UNC. It brought $1,035 that day and five years later in a more sophisticated market this one will most definitely bring much more.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1207 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
25c Experimental Face Second Issue
A wonderfully margined and centered example that gives the appearance of a higher grade. Printed on thick bond paper with the typical two half moon cancels and the purple "SPECIMEN" across the portrait. A very well-embossed example that appears to be deserving of the PPQ designation.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1208 - Fractional Currency - ($ 3,000.00 - $ 6,000.00)
50c Fiber Paper Experimental Second Issue Inverted Surcharges
This is the finest example we have ever seen of this extremely scarce experimental type. Gorgeous red back color with inverted bronzing on both the denomination and the R-2-18-63 surcharges (like Fr. 1321 back). Printed on bright fiber paper with deep embossing and a large bronze oval on the back. The identical type to Ford XIX lot 250; that example was graded Ch. CU due to the design being shifted to the right edge and it still brought $1,725 on that day some five years ago. In a much better grade and in this more sophisticated market we would expect a result that might very well prove our estimate conservative.

Lot #1209 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
50c Proof Second Issue
Uncancelled and printed differently than the typical experimental notes. This is a very sharply printed proof which is the kind that is seen in the presentation books. Rarely offered for sale and highly desirable.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1210 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1226 3c Third Issue
An astounding light background Fractional that falls just short of the Gem grade. It has very bold printing quality and strong visual impact.

Lot #1211 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)

Sizeable margins and deep perforations make this a very desirable First Issue type note.
Grade: PMG UNC 62   
Lot #1212 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1229 5c First Issue
Plenty of originality and superb color are seen on this First Issue perforated note. The no monogram variety is much scarcer and with its deep perforations and huge left margin it should prove to be a very popular item. In case you haven't been paying attention, the market for quality items has picked up in earnest these past several months.
Grade: PCGS New 62 PPQ   
Lot #1213 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1229 5c First Issue
An incredibly well-margined and perfectly centered example of this tough Friedberg number that is printed on the typical bright yellow paper.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1214 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 1230 5c First Issue Complete Sheet
A complete sheet of 20 First Issue 5c notes. Bright paper, abundant margins and great color will follow this sheet wherever it goes. It's chop value as strips of four should be $800-$1,000 but we would certainly expect more for the intact sheet.
Grade: PCGS VF 35   
Lot #1215 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1231 5c First Issue
PCGS notes minor mounting remnants on back and they were telling the truth; we see one very minor speck of glue at the back lower right and it is truly minor. The note faces up as a bright and colorful example that will make a wonderful addition to anyone's collection. PCGS has graded this note and one other in "64" with only a single "Gem 65" above this. A variety that is rarely seen in this state of preservation.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1216 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)

Lot #1217 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1232SP 5c Second Issue Wide Margin Pair
Both of these fully wide margin specimens display good print quality and bright bronze although toned paper has reared its ugly head. No matter how you slice it they are still a wide margin pair and carry considerable value.
Grade: PCGS Graded   
Lot #1218 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1234 5c Second Issue
A near Gem looking example of a sleeper Fractional number that rarely is seen in Gem grade. PMG has noted hinged but if you can find it you will probably be the first.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64   
Lot #1219 - Fractional Currency - ($ 2,500.00 - $ 5,000.00)
Fr. 1234 5c Second Issue
There's not much to be said about this complete sheet except Wow! PMG has Net graded to AU due to some paper damage which is seen in the bronzing on a few of the notes. We won't go so far as to say that this number is unique but it is certainly very rare and worthy of serious bidding. Heritage has never sold one, we haven't either, and we aren't sure if there were any in the early Ford sales. Well margined for the most part with crystal clear surcharges and excellent color on the back design. If you are looking for something special for your advanced Fractional collection or are a beginner wishing to make a big splash then this is the item for you.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 53 Net   
Lot #1220 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1236 5c Third Issue
High-grade red back Clark notes are not all that easy to come across but this one is a real beauty. It has sizeable margins, great embossing and radiant ink colors.
Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ   
Lot #1221 - Fractional Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
Fr. 1236 5c Third Issue
An invigorating example of this red back Clark type that is a real premium quality example for the grade. It faces up like a Gem with great color, plentiful margins and excellent centering. Do not expect that this one will sell for typical Ch. New money.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1222 - Fractional Currency - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 1236 5c Third Issue
A lovely red back Clark note that falls just short of the Gem grade but which is utterly original. A note which once resided in the superlative Body/Ford collection should only serve to augment its value.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 EPQ   
Lot #1223 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1240 10c First Issue
Large margins and perfect centering make this Ch. AU example a welcome addition to your collection. It appears that only a handled corner precludes a far better grade from being assigned.
Grade: PMG Ch. Abt. UNC 58 EPQ   
Lot #1224 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1241 10c First Issue
A robust example of this First Issue perforated note, without monogram, that is a much tougher animal to tame.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1225 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
Fr. 1242 10c First Issue
This is a really marvelous example of this First Issue type that is befitting any registry set that it can land in. Huge margins on all sides and picture perfect centering make this colorful note a real treat. While the Green Sheet asking price is $260 in Gem 65 it jumps many multiples to $1,850 in Superb Gem 67 which shows just how desirable these are in the ultimate high grades. We have recently just seen a PCGS Superb Gem New 69PPQ set all kinds of pricing records for the type and we are sure this note won't lag very far behind.
Grade: PCGS Superb Gem New 67 PPQ   
Lot #1226 - Fractional Currency - ($ 175.00 - $ 325.00)
Fr. 1243 10c First Issue

Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58   
Lot #1227 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1243SP 10c First Issue Wide Margin Back
This is one of the nicest "62" graded Fractional specimens we have seen. It is fully bright, enormously margined and perfectly centered. Nearly three full cutting guidelines are present. If you think that this will bring typical CU money you may want to reconsider your bidding strategy.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1228 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1247 10c Second Issue
A splendid example of this much less often seen variety that is lightly circulated although we still see plenty of traces of embossing. The "1" surcharge on this note is one of the clearest examples we can recall having seen.
Grade: PCGS XF 45   
Lot #1229 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1249 10c Second Issue
Crystal clear surcharges and amazing ink colors are seen on this enormously margined fiber paper Fractional. The Green Sheet asking price is $200 in AU but unless you have been in a coma for the last six months you are well aware of how much higher price levels have moved in that time.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53   
Lot #1230 - Fractional Currency - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 1251 10c Third Issue
A delightful near-Gem example of this red back type that shows with titanic margins and exceptionally bright bronze. Cavernously embossed paper surfaces are clearly visible through the holder. A premium example that is as nice as they come.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1231 - Fractional Currency - ($ 350.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 1251 10c Third Issue
A deeply embossed red back fractional with great embossing and fresh paper. Three large margins do not hold back the grade but an average left margin does.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 EPQ   
Lot #1232 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1251SP 10c Third Issue Wide Margin Back
A superb example of this red back Third Issue specimen that is wide with great color and originality. The Green Sheet asking price of $300 in Gem 65 should be left in the dust once the hammer falls on this beauty.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ   
Lot #1233 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1251SP 10c Third Issue Wide Margin Back
A perfectly centered wide margin specimen that will most likely realize far more than a typical Ch. CU example.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1234 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1253 10c Third Issue
Bold Colby and Spinner signatures are found on this hand-signed red back Fractional. PCGS notes there is a minor mounting stain at right. But for that fact, this beautiful piece of currency faces up like an original near Gem.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1235 - Fractional Currency - ($ 275.00 - $ 425.00)
Fr. 1253SP 10c Third Issue Wide Margin Face
A bright, broadly margined and very well-centered example of this hand-signed Colby-Spinner specimen. The bronze looks like it was applied five minutes ago and the print quality is astounding. This is far more commonly seen as a narrow specimen than wide.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63   
Lot #1236 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1254 10c Third Issue
A couple of piddly upper corner tip folds are all that separate this scarce Jeffries-Spinner hand-signed note from at least a Ch. New designation. There are three huge margins, the color is out of this world and the embossing is as deep as a New England snowstorm.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #1237 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1255 10c Third Issue
Phenomenal originality and superb eye appeal are both attributes of this Third Issue Gem that appears to have gotten the short shrift from the grading service. It has great margins on all sides and the centering is virtually perfect. Gem Fractionals have been seeing meteoric price increases in recent months, a trend which should be proven by this lovely example.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ   
Lot #1238 - Fractional Currency - ($ 135.00 - $ 195.00)
Fr. 1256 10c Third Issue
Cavernous embossing and bright bronzing lend greatly to the charm and beauty of this scarcer "1" on face note.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1239 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
Fr. 1257 10c Fourth Issue
Leviathan margins and stunning paper make this note absolutely stunning. There are two others tied with this example but if memory serves correct one of those was actually a Fr. 1258 that was incorrectly attributed. The Green Sheet asking price of $950 in this grade should be mauled by a superior example of this quality.
Grade: PCGS Superb Gem New 67 PPQ   
Lot #1240 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1261 10c Fourth Issue
An incredibly well-margined example of this Fourth Issue type that has a blue fibered right end and smaller Treasury seal.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1241 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1265 10c Fifth Issue
This short key Meredith note is actually quite difficult to locate in super high grade; this is supported by the fact that PCGS has graded about 240 of these with only two grading Superb Gem. Broad and balanced margins strongly attest to the validity of the grade.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ   
Lot #1242 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1267 15c Fourth Issue

Lot #1243 - Fractional Currency - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 1272SP 15c Third Issue Narrow Margin Pair
Both of these Grant-Sherman notes have been deemed to have a small edge tear but in both cases the tear is next to impossible to find. Both notes are bright and colorful with loads of eye appeal for the grade. A type that is always in great demand, a point that should be reinforced tonight.
Grade: PCGS Graded   
Lot #1244 - Fractional Currency - ($ 325.00 - $ 575.00)
Fr. 1276SP 15c Third Issue Narrow Margin Back
This red back specimen will go nicely with any high quality Grant-Sherman face. It faces up like a Gem and will likely receive bids as such.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63   
Lot #1245 - Fractional Currency - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
Fr. 1279 25c First Issue
A magnificent First Issue note with deep perforations and excellent color. It faces up like a Ch. New note and we are having a difficult time finding the reason for the AU grade.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58   
Lot #1246 - Fractional Currency - ($ 125.00 - $ 250.00)
Fr. 1281 25c First Issue
We normally wouldn't include a note like this in the main part of the catalog but it has such large margins and great originality that we feel it possesses the type of potential that collectors and dealers alike crave.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #1247 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1282 25c First Issue
Generally accepted as the second or third scarcest of the 16 first issue Fractional varieties. A superbly embossed example that only has a tiny corner tip fold precluding it from achieving a much higher grade.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ   
Lot #1248 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1283 25c Second Issue
An utterly beautiful example of this Second Issue note that faces up like a screaming Gem and then some. It has great margins, excellent centering and blinding bronzing. A virtually identical example of this number sold at 2012 FUN for $402.50 and it would not surprise us at all to see a similar realization tonight.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1249 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1283 25c Second Issue
Only slightly skewed centering keeps this Second Issue Fractional type note from a much higher grade.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 EPQ   
Lot #1250 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1284 25c Second Issue
An undeniably fresh and attractive example of this much scarcer sleeper number with "18-63" surcharges on the back. From the face this is an illustrious Gem with its sizeable margins, excellent centering and luminescent bronzing. In the PCGS Population Report only two notes grade better than "64" which shows just how difficult it is to locate Gems of this variety.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1251 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1284 25c Second Issue
A second pleasing example of this tougher number that is a Gem in every regard but for a smaller right margin.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1252 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1288 25c Second Issue
A sleeper Fractional number with the most distinct "2" surcharge you are likely to ever see. These are not often seen in Gem grades so this is about as good as it gets. Bright bronze and great color lead the way into your collection.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64   
Lot #1253 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1289 25c Second Issue
A very attractive example of this heavily fibered Fractional that wields crystal clear surcharges and majestic purple back design. PCGS notes there are small stains and we concur; they are small and primarily confined to the top margin.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 53   
Lot #1254 - Fractional Currency - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,300.00)
Fr. 1291 25c Third Issue
An exceptional example of this available type that is rarely seen in grades this nice. Excellent margins and nearly perfect centering add greatly to the visual impact of this piece. The back color is superb and the embossing seemingly bottomless. With Superb Gems being an easy four-figure item we expect this example to reach that price level as well.

Lot #1255 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1291 25c Third Issue
A deeply embossed red back Fessenden with bright bronzing and fiery ink colors. AUs have been bringing between $150-$200 and this note is far nicer than that.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1256 - Fractional Currency - ($ 175.00 - $ 325.00)
Fr. 1294 25c Third Issue
A couple of smaller margins are the only hindrance for this green back Fessenden. The paper is as bright and fresh as the day it was printed and the embossing is bottomless.

Lot #1257 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)

Lot #1258 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1295 25c Third Issue
This "a" on face green back Fessenden is a much tougher note to locate in higher grades. The embossing is just stunning and the paper is utterly fresh and undeniably original. This same note realized $161 in an April Heritage sale and if you don't think that it's worth more now then you just haven't been paying attention.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ   
Lot #1259 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1301 25c Fourth Issue
Over the past several years, this Washington type has proven to be one of the most popular with collectors. Falling just a point short of the Gem grade, it should be highly sought after by ravenous collectors.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ   
Lot #1260 - Fractional Currency - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
Fr. 1302 25c Fourth Issue
Any Gem Washington note from the Fourth Issue is a very desirable item but particularly so in this case. This variety, without watermark, is easily the scarcest for the type and particularly so in Gem grade. Gems rarely come up for auction and when they do they are hotly contested with breathless anticipation. Do not let yourself be guided by conventional pricing mechanisms lest your bid lands you in 12th place.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 65   
Lot #1261 - Fractional Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
Fr. 1311 50c First Issue
This perforated, no monogram note is one of the scarcest and most desirable of the 16 First Issue varieties. Lightly circulated and bright with remarkable eye appeal in the holder.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1262 - Fractional Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
Fr. 1313 50c First Issue
A very bright and attractive example of this straight edge, no monogram note that is generally accepted as the scarcest of the 16 First Issue Fractional varieties. We observe some light handling through the holder but that seems to be all that accounts for the grade. PCGS has only graded three CU examples of this number which makes this Ch. AU note look like a keeper.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55   
Lot #1263 - Fractional Currency - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
Fr. 1316 50c Second Issue
A broadly margined example of this tougher number with "18-63" surcharges. Some corner folds appear to account for the grade.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1264 - Fractional Currency - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
Fr. 1317 50c Second Issue
We don't very often see high-grade examples of this number because margin size and centering are almost always an issue. This example has dead-on centering, excellent color and razor sharp surcharges. The Green Sheet value of $375 won't hold up under the intense of pressure of collector bidding.
Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ   
Lot #1265 - Fractional Currency - ($ 125.00 - $ 250.00)
Fr. 1317 50c Second Issue
A lightly circulated example with far more clearly printed surcharges than we typically see.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1266 - Fractional Currency - ($ 225.00 - $ 375.00)
Fr. 1318 50c Second Issue
Three gigantic margins and an adequate fourth are found on this higher denomination Fractional. Boldly bronzed surcharges only add to the eye appeal of this piece.
Grade: PCGS New 62   
Lot #1267 - Fractional Currency - ($ 175.00 - $ 325.00)
Fr. 1321 50c Second Issue
This is the scarcest of the three fiber paper 50d notes and it is a beauty. PCGS notes there is a minor stain at the left end. The note is very broadly margined with great back color and a nearly perfectly centered bronze oval. A tough note to obtain in any grade but particularly so in CU grade.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40   
Lot #1268 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1327 50c Third Issue
This is one of the prettiest examples we have seen of this number, and its aesthetic beauty is not to be questioned. It has been blessed with great color, bottomless embossing and huge margins.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58   
Lot #1269 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1328 50c Third Issue
Boldly applied Colby and Spinner autographs lend to the eye appeal of this red back Spinner note. A broadly margined example with plenty of embossing visible through the third-party holder. The Green Sheet asking price of $105 should be easily vanquished by this note.
Grade: PCGS XF 40 PPQ   
Lot #1270 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)

Lot #1271 - Fractional Currency - ($ 275.00 - $ 425.00)
Fr. 1332 50c Third Issue
This is quite a note in all respects. A scarcer "1" and "a" note that would be highly coveted on its own merits. It has been blessed with behemoth margins on all sides with a couple of very lightly handled corners preventing the Gem grade from being assigned.
Grade: PMG Ch. Abt. UNC 58   
Lot #1272 - Fractional Currency - ($ 150.00 - $ 300.00)
Fr. 1334 50c Third Issue
A much tougher Spinner number with green back and "a" on face position indicator. PCGS notes there is a rust stain at left but it is truly minor and does little to impede the sheer beauty of this note. Exceptionally large margins and bold printing quality make this note a real charmer.

The green back Spinner subtype that has the "A-2-6-5" surcharges on the back is a lot tougher to obtain than are the typical green back notes. This note has gigantic margins on all sides, great color and blinding bronze. A wonderfully original example that should prove to be very popular.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53   
Lot #1274 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1340 50c Third Issue
This "1" and "a" Fractional is the key to the Type II Spinner notes. It has great margins on all sides, deep embossing at every turn and a modicum of light folds to its credit. The last auction record we can seem to find in this grade was over a year ago; a PCGS VF 35PPQ that brought $184 in a much different market.

Fr. 1355 50c Third Issue
A deeply embossed and brightly bronzed example of this desirable hand-signed note that has a couple of specks of minor ink erosion. This would be a $400 note in this condition in a comment-free holder; with the minor issue probably just a little less.
Grade: PCGS Apparent New 62   
Lot #1277 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1357aSP 50c Third Issue Narrow Margin Face
PCGS has only graded six examples of this hand-signed Justice specimen; five circulated notes and the present example. With this note being Top Pop and the only CU example they have graded you can imagine this will have quite an impact on the value of this piece. The Jeffries and Spinner autographs are boldly penned, the bronzing is as luminous as it comes and the paper is as bright as the mid-morning sun. Throw away your sheet and any other pricing mechanisms you may have learned over the years and bid with your heart; trepidation never formed great collections.

Lot #1281 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1366 50c Third Issue
Enormous margins and perfect centering are seen on this bright and colorful Justice note. This subtype with the widely spaced surcharges is much scarcer and more desirable, especially when one heads to the upper reaches of the grading scale.
Grade: PMG XF 40 EPQ   
Lot #1282 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1374 50c Fourth Issue
Recent auction results have proven that AU Lincoln notes have returned to the $500 price level. This note has typical margins for the type; two huge margins and two that hug the frame line. A corner fold is all that we can see that prevents a much higher grade from being assigned.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 50   
Lot #1283 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Fr. 1376 50c Fourth Issue
There are AU Stantons and then there is this note. Breathtaking originality, robust color and bottomless embossing are but some of the wonderful traits embodied by this note. It has also been blessed with gigantic margins and nearly perfect centering. But for a diagonal fold and a light center bend this premium example would approach the four-figure mark.

An extremely scarce example, particularly so in this lofty grade. PCGS notes damaged, repaired and redrawn at top center. A note that has a Green Sheet asking price of $1,200 for a problem-free example. PCGS has only graded a handful of this series and denomination; none have graded CU and there are three that grade AU. This note sold back in the 2004 FUN sale as New before the advent of third-party grading. On that day it brought $1,380.

A seemingly flawless example that could easily be deserving of an even higher grade. The margins are huge and the centering perfect on all sides. The *-D note has always been highly coveted by collectors and we would expect a superb quality note such as this to be engaged in a lengthy fit before finding its new home.

With only 12,000 printed, this is a great example of a very scarce FRBN star. PCGS has graded one AU and this note is next in line in the grading queue.

This is a really scarce star note no matter how you slice it. While the dark green seal mule stars are certainly more available this is the only one we can recall having seen. Apparently, the same holds true for PCGS since it is the only example they have graded after years in business. Plentiful margins, balanced centering and a modest degree of circulation leave this note screaming to join the other fine notes in your collection.

In auctions of years past this same note was repeatedly graded as a Superb Gem CU note and we are inclined to see that point of view. The margins are exceptionally broad on all sides with the depth of embossing and overall paper quality not lacking in any regard. With only 640,000 printed, this has always been a highly coveted note and those feelings will likely be shared by its new owner.

While we can't claim that this note is Top Pop it is the second best graded by PCGS; there is a single "61" but generally that's a shunned grade by both dealer and collector alike.

With only 128,000 printed, St. Louis is truly a scarce star note and bested only by the Kansas City star. An astounding note that is as fresh and bright as the day it was printed with embossing that is fully punched through. CU examples from this district are very scarce and pure Gems are crushingly rare. Expect the catalog value of $500 in Gem CU to seem a distant memory once the hammer falls on this condition census piece.

Lot #1508 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
$50 1969-C* I Minneapolis I-*
This is an extremely scarce modern star $50 with only 64,000 printed. The note has superb margins, perfect centering and it is as original and deeply embossed as the day it was printed. A highly desirable note that is missing from most advanced collections. Schwartz/Lindquist lists this at $250 in Ch. CU and $400 in Gem CU, with both of these figures being impossibly low. For those of you with the crossover bug, PCGS has only graded two examples, both circulated.

Lot #1513 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 275.00 - $ 425.00)
$100 1934-A B New York B-A Mule
Through the holder this appears to be an absolutely robust near Gem with crackerjack embossing and exceptional color. We can't see any reason why the grade has been limited nor why the PPQ designation is printed with invisible ink.

This is one of those lots that the casual observer isn't going to understand. The note itself is a lovely near XF example with perhaps a fold too many for that grade and stunning originality everywhere. PCGS has graded three with two in this grade and a single XF 45 (that means no UNC). People simply didn't save these modern star notes for any reason and therefore they are just plain hard to come by.

Here we have one of the earliest and rarest small size double denomination notes known and it's a problem free example graded Ch. New 63 by PCGS. One can tell that the serial numbers don't line up perfectly and that the centering is just a touch high. Certainly I can see nothing that affects the image design. A $10 face over a $5 back, and from the Richmond #5 district even makes the $10-$5 thing more interesting. While I have never seen serial number or grade records for this specific double denomination, there can't be many better because centering has always been an issue for this particular double denomination.

Printed fold. The sheet folded up and over prior to the back printing, then opened for the face and overprintings. It also remained open for the cutting operations, so "excess" paper was trimmed to create a rectangular shape. However, when the paper is folded as it was during the back printing a wide white frame appears from where the excess was trimmed. Highly unusual.

The authenticity of this set is beyond question, as the serial numbering is consecutive although the series changes from 1988-A on the $10s to 1990 on the $20s, as these two were printed during the same month a the BEP. This is one of five sets known, all are listed by serial number on page 273 of Frederick J. Bart's book on errors. A couple of pages later this exact set is illustrated and valued at $10,000.
