Lot #1000 - Small Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 8,500.00 - $ 12,500.00)
$1 1928 SC W00000001A
We start the auction off with a bang!! This beauty and the next note represent the highly unusual opportunity of obtaining the first and last notes printed in the same block. They are separated by 999999998 notes. These notes were bought individually by Mel several years apart and it was a fortuitous event that this pair could be put together. Locating any serial #00000001 in the 1928 $1 Silver Certificate series is mighty tough. But pairing the #1 note with the same block letter #99999999 is nigh impossible. We expect spirited bidding on this pair.
Grade: PMG 64 Choice Uncirculated

Lot #1001 - Small Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 10,000.00 - $ 18,000.00)
$1 1928 SC W99999999A
Don't under-estimate just how difficult it is to find the first and last note from the same block. There was no reason to keep them together, and for many decades these notes resided in separate collections. Only in the $1 1934 SC series is there a handful of first and last (serial #00000001 and #99999999), but as you would expect, they have been split up. The $1 1934 Silver Certificates from blocks B-A to F-A are all known in the same block with both the #1 and the #99999999 in private collections. BUT......they have all been split up. In the 1934 series, collectors have kept the rollover pairs together and therefore don't have the matched block letters for the first and last note in the same block. We can't stress enough just how difficult it is to put together a set like these first two notes with the same block letters. $1 1928 SC W99999999A PMG 64 Choice Uncirculated.

Lot #1002 - Small Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 15,000.00 - $ 25,000.00)
$5 1953A SC E99999999A
We are aware of only two $5 1953 era Silver Certificate solid nines serial numbers in private hands. This and the $5 1953 SC #A99999999A. The A-A is a single note and is not presently paired with the rollover B00000001A. This 1953A $5 SC #E99999999A note, graded PMG 64 EPQ Choice CU, and the next lot, the $5 1953A SC #F00000001A represent a rare opportunity to obtain a $5 Silver Certificate Roll over pair. If you wanted to walk away with two of the rarest notes in Mel Wilmore's collection, this and the next note certainly qualify as two of the finest. Both are graded Choice CU EPQ by PMG.

$5 1953A SC F00000001A
If you're thinking you might wait in hopes of finding another rollover pair like this we would suggest that you'll grow a long beard before that happens. Check every auction catalog over the past decade and this pair is likely to be the only $5 Silver Certificate rollover pair you'll find. Once this pair is sold it may be another generation before it surfaces again. $1 1953C Silver Certificate F00000001A PMG 63 EPQ Choice Uncirculated.

$1 1974 FRN C00000001D & C00004000D End Label Set
Federal Reserve Notes used to be bundled in 4000 note bricks with the first and last notes known as an end label set. This neat pair is a #1 end label set from the 1974 series. Both the C00000001D and the C00004000D have been graded PMG 64 EPQ Choice Uncirculated. Very few #1 notes are accompanied by their "brick mates" like this one fortunately is.

$1 1969B FRN C00000001B
With the recent marking of the 50th Anniversary of the John F. Kennedy assassination, the spotlight returned again to John Connally last November. Secretary of the Treasury Connally was shot in the same vehicle as President Kennedy. Obtaining a beautiful serial #00000001 note with his signature would be fitting tribute to his memory. $1 1969B FRN C00000001B PMG 64 Choice Uncirculated.

Lot #1007 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 6,000.00 - $ 9,000.00)
$10 1990 FRN E00000001B
Far fewer $10 FRNs are printed than $1, $5, and $20 FRNs. The 1990 BEP Production Reports indicate that approximately 3 times as many $20 FRNs and 4 times as many $1 FRNs were printed. Yet we often see $10 notes selling for little premium over the other denominations. We suggest that bidders stretch a bit to obtain this note for that and one other important reason: The BEP will never again print small head $10 notes. This beauty will prove we believe, over time, to be one of the more elusive acquisitions you ever make.
Grade: PMG 64 EPQ Choice Uncirculated

Lot #1008 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 25,000.00 - $ 50,000.00)
$10 2003 FRN DA00000001*
This is likely the single most valuable note and one of the centerpieces of the Mel Wilmore's collection! We believe that only two serial #1 star notes on the #1 district Federal Reserve Notes have ever surfaced over the years. The only example we can recall is the $5 2006 FRN IA00000001* sold by Mike Abramson. That note and it's mates in the same pack were eventually re-sold for over six figures after the pack was split up. Serial number #00000001 notes are always in demand, while #00000001 star notes are often the centerpiece of even the most advanced collections. BUT....A Serial #00000001 STAR on DISTRICT #1 is an offering we cannot ever recall appearing at public auction before. At the August 2013 ANA auction, Stacks-Bowers sold three #1 star notes: The $2 1976 FRN L00000001* in PCGS 64 PPQ realized $18,800, the $100 1934 FRN D00000001* PMG 66 EPQ sold for $88,125 and the $500 FRN J00000001* PCGS 63 PPQ realized $176,250. While all of these notes were indeed rare, none of these three serial #1 Star Notes was printed on district #1. We are confident that the note being offered today is the ONLY known $10 FRN serial #00000001 STAR on the #1 district ever offered at public auction. Coming up with an accurate price estimate is quite a challenge for this treasure. We believe we are being very, very conservative and that this note could bring two to three times our estimate. This PMG 65 non-colorized Gem Uncirculated Beauty is a note your family will cherish for generations to come.

Lot #1009 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 6,000.00 - $ 10,000.00)
$20 1950 FRN C00000001A
This 1950's era $20 Federal Reserve Note is a real find. We have found that most collectors are willing to pay a significant premium for serial number 00000001 note that have an "A" suffix and this beauty should prove no exception. Small head twenties from this era are under-valued in our opinion and this dandy is worth a premium bid.

Lot #1010 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 5,000.00 - $ 8,000.00)
$20 1999 FRN BF00000001C
This note may prove to be a "sleeper" in the future. In comparing the number of colorized big head $10 notes that have now been printed, one quickly realizes that far, far less non-colorized notes were printed. While the centering is not quite perfect, the note is pack fresh and exhibits great embossing and bright fresh inks. $20 1999 FRN BF00000001C PMG 63 EPQ Choice Uncirculated.

Lot #1011 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 6,000.00 - $ 9,000.00)
$20 2001 FRN CE0000001C
The second of two non-colorized big head $20 FRN serial #1s. If you look over the years, at the serial #00000001s that have been offered at auction, you will find that the majority of uncirculated specimens are in 63 or 64 holders. This wonderful piece is in a PMG 65 EPQ holder, making it a bit rarer than most that have surfaced over the years. As the BEP has long changed over to the colorized version of $10 FRNS, we would suggest it will be quite some time before a non-colorized serial #1 equal to this crosses the auction block. $20 2001 FRN CE00000001C PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

Lot #1012 - Small Size Type Notes > Federal Reserve Notes - ($ 9,000.00 - $ 15,000.00)
$2 2003 FRN BEP Set of 12 matched notes: A-L00000006*
The 2003 $2 FRN BEP Premium sets sold out immediately upon offering and have been popular collectible items for many years now. We know that the 12 note serial #00000001 STAR set traded hands many years ago at $180,000 and that the 12 note #00000002 STAR set was sold at $50,000. Both are with the same collector today who has no interest in selling either set. The #00000004 set was broken up a few years ago. This and the next are the two of the lowest serial numbered sets that have been publicly auctioned since the sets' release. All of the $2 2003 FRN sets listed here are housed in their original green books with matching slip covers and are in immaculate condition. Each set contains twelve $2 2003 FRN notes, all with the same serial number, from all twelve districts. This magnificent set, all 12 notes bearing serial #00000006 STAR held special meaning for Mel Wilmore. In 2012 Mel sold the most extensive set of MontBlanc pens ever assembled. Many of the rare pens in Mel's magnificent collection bore serial #6, making this specific set quite special to him.

$2 2003 FRN BEP Set of 12 matched notes: A-L00000008*
As most of you reading this catalog know, the number "8" represents good luck, good fortune, great wealth or good health in several far east countries. The demand is always strong for serial number 00000008 notes, but we have never had the pleasure of offering a matched 12 note set, all with serial #00000008. You will receive the original green display book with matching slip case in pristine condition, and twelve serial #00000008 STAR notes, one from each of the twelve different Federal Reserve districts. The H00000008* will take your breath way. This set is arguably the third most desirable set of the 2000 released, and might be the most popular set in many countries overseas.

$2 2003 FRN BEP Set of 12 matched notes: A-L00000080*
If your budget won't allow $15,000 for the serial #00000008 set above, we'd suggest this set as a wonderful alternative. This set also contains a single 8 in the serial number, with each note on all 12 districts bearing serial #00000080 STAR. Mel took great care in storing these sets so that each one is about as perfect as you could hope for. If you bought the #00000008 set above, this would certainly make a lovely mate to it. We are also offering the serial #00000800 set two lots following. 12 note all serial #00000080 STAR.

We just love any serial number with seven zeros in it. This wonderful set contains 12 matched notes from all 12 districts all with serial #00000600 STAR. With only 2000 sets issued in this series only 21 sets were printed with seven zeros in the serial number. Mel owned six of them, all of which are being offering in today's auction. 12 note matched set all with serial #00000600 STAR.

This set represents one more opportunity to obtain one of these 12 note matched BEP sets containing seven zeros in the serial number. If you purchased either the #00000008 STAR set or #00000080 STAR set in this sale, this #00000800 set is a MUST for your collection. All of Mel's sets have been in his collection since they were released by the BEP and never before offered to the public. We recommend a strong bid to obtain this low numbered, matched set of 12 notes from A-L districts, all with serial #00000800 STAR.

$2 2003 FRN BEP Set of 12 matched notes: A-L00000900*
Once this set crosses the auction block, we wouldn't expect to see many more seven zero, digit matched sets like this appear for sale. If you've been watching what the BEP now releases in their current matched sets, you won't see serial number ranges like the ones offered in the Mel Wilmore 2003 $2 FRN sets. Most new matched sets that have been produced since the release of this set have serial numbers above 00002000. Very, very few have seven zeros in their serial numbers. We suggest you stretch to obtain this 12 note 12 district matched set, all with serial #00000900 STAR.

Lot #1028 - Small Size Type Notes > Silver Certificates - ($ 700.00 - $ 1,200.00)
$1 1928 SC Set of three with serial 00000090
We've seen a trend where 1928 low serial numbered notes have been bringing significantly stronger prices than their 1935 to 1957 counterparts. Clearly far fewer of these low serial numbered notes were printed from the 1928 to 1928B series and collectors have been bidding them up year after year. Ten years ago they might have brought $75 per note at auction, and now we have several two digit examples that we believe will bring between $300 and $500 each. This lot includes a really nice trio: $1 1928 SC F00000090A, $1 1928A K00000090A and $1 1928A S00000090A. All three would conservativly grade Ch. CU. Replacing a trio like this is no easy task.

There's something about having just 1's in the serial number of a Silver Certificate that makes the note highly desirable.

Historically serial # 00000002 notes have brought 20% of the price of serial # 00000001 notes at auction. If you study past auction offering you will find that serial number 00000002 notes appear less frequently than their #1 counterparts, often making them great values.

As stated earlier in this auction, you won't find many $1 1928 era SCs with fancy serial numbers. Back in the day, the BEP seemed to have little concern about the appearance of margins on these early Silvers. It is highly common to find centering problems from the 1928, 1928A and 1928B series.

Arguably this is the single most desirable serial number on a $1 Silver Certificate. While some may state that serial #00000001 is more popular, the ten million serial number is perhaps 50 times as rare as serial #1. Can you recall the last time you saw this serial number auctioned? We have seen other serial #10000000 examples sell at over $3,000. The appearance of these notes is so uncommon that placing an accurate bid estimate is a real challenge.

$1 1957A SC N40000000A
Taking nothing away from single digit serial numbers such as 00000004, this serial number 40000000 is many, many multiples rarer. Bank employees and collectors simply didn't pull these "ten million" serial numbers out back then, and now the demand far exceeds the supply. It is not unusual for two to three years to go by before a single "ten million" serial number note is offered by any auction house.

What is especially impressive about the Wilmore collection of fancy serial numbered notes is the overall condition. Over 98% of the notes in Mel's collection are Choice Uncirculated or better. While this may not seem all that unusual, it truly is. Remember that seven zero serial numbers were always the bottom note in a pack or brick of notes. The chances for damage on these rare notes was very high. Only one of Mel's "ten million" serial numbers grades lower than Choice Uncirculated. This wonderful $1 1957A Silver Certificate #C60000000A has been graded highest of all at PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

$1 1935A SC R70000000A
Another very rare ten million serial numbered note that is all but impossible to duplicate. With the increased popularity of any note containing sevens in the serial number, we expect this dandy to bring a very strong price. As one would expect, with this note being the last note in a pack, some almost imperceptible edge damage is to be expected. This $1 1935A SC serial number R70000000A has been graded PMG 64 Net, due to a slightly faded serial number. Nevertheless the note received a 64 grade which tells you it is still a wonderful piece and highly collectible.

$1 1988A FRN H00000001B
An attractive, reasonably well centered example of a serial #00000001 note. It may come as a surprise to many, but the BEP regularly "smears" the serial number of many #00000001 notes. The reason isn't totally clear but we've heard the same story several times, that when the block letters are changed, necessitated by a roll over to a new #1 serial number, the BEP presses are cleaned with a solvent, which often leaves residue on the first note printed. Hence over half of the serial #00000001s we have seen over the years display at least some evidence of smearing on either the green and/or black ink on the face of the note.

An incredibly difficult set to construct: $1 1935 SC F00000002A PMG 64, $1 1969B FRN D00000020A PMG 66 EPQ, $1 1977 FRN H00000200B PMG 66 EPQ, $1 1974 FRN C00002000D PMG 65 EPQ, $1 1963A D00200000D 65 EPQ, $1 1928A SC K000200000A PMG 64 EPQ, $1 1963A FRN A02000000B PMG 64 EPQ, and $1 1935 SC B20000000A PMG 63 Net with a very minor foreign substance. We would recommend you ask any specialist of fancy serial numbered notes to see how difficult it is to locate a note with serial #20000000. We know you'll find that this is an all but impossible serial number to locate, at any price. Multiple collectors want this #20000000 note, but put simply there is absolutely no supply. If you stretch to buy this lot, you won't regret it. Also includes an "extra" note: $1 1981A FRN G00020000C PMG 63, making this a nine piece lot.

We have seen only three small size $50 FRNs with solid serial #11111111. None of them was a small head note. One was from this same series in VF condition and the other was a 2006 uncirculated specimen that sold for close to $6000 in a private transaction. This great note looks two grades higher than it's technical grade, but we suggest that grade is not very important when considering this purchase. Where will you find another one in any grade?

Perhaps the third rarest solid serial number in the Wilmore collection. By some measures, to some collectors, it may be the single most appealing solid serial number in Mel's collection. Several collectors are working on a set of $1 to $100 FRNs all with serial #77777777, but they all lack the $50 denomination. This amazing piece is the only known $50 77777777 (small or big head) we have ever auctioned. It happens to be printed on the 7th district and sits in a Gem CU holder. According to the Collector's Guide to Modern Federal Reserve Notes, by Robert Azpiazu, Jr, we see the number of $50 FRNs printed with serial #77777777 for all districts is as follows: 1963A = 0, 1969 = 0, 1969A = 0, 1969B = 0, 1969C = 0, 1974 = 1, 1981 = 1, 1981A = 0, 1985 = 3, 1988 = 2, 1990 = 4, and 1993 = 6. Only a total of 18 $50 FRN small head solid serial #77777777 were ever printed. How many were saved?? This magnificent rarity is a $50 1990 FRN G77777777A PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

$100 1974 FRN B77777777A
Two wonderful small head $100 FRN solid serial numbered notes have appeared in the Billy Key sale two years ago, and both of them were serial #11111111. The reason this specific note being offered today, is exceptionally rare, is that the BEP in early years, simply didn't print most $100 FRN blocks up to this serial number. Most serial number ranges ended far lower than this serial number. In fact the very first time the BEP ever printed a small size $100 FRN with serial #7777777 came from the 1974 series AND it was the only solid 7's printed for any district in this series. You are looking at it right now. It was not until the 1985 series that another $100 serial #7777777 was printed and then again only ONE solid 7's was printed in that series. Referring again to the Collector's Guide to Modern Federal Reserve Notes, by Robert Azpiazu, Jr, we see the number of $100 FRNs printed with serial #77777777 for all districts is as follows: 1969 = 0, 1969A = 0, 1969C = 0, 1974 = 1 (this note), 1977 = 1, 1981 = 0, 1981A = 0, 1985 = 2, 1988 = 4, 1990 = 13 and 1993 = 4. Only a total of 25 $100 FRN solid serial #77777777 from all districts were printed over 25 years. If you want rare, this note should satisfy that definition. $100 1974 FRN B77777777A.

This complete set of $1 Federal Reserve Notes is exceptionally difficult to complete for two reasons: 1) Since the end of the 1977 series, The Bureau of Engraving and Printing has been removing $1 FRNs with serial #20000002 each time it is printed for quality control checks, and replacing it with a random serial number star note and 2) The BEP stopped printing $1 FRNs above serial #96000000 with the 1977 series. We know of only five complete $1 FRN 01111110 98888889 in private hands. The Wilmore set is enhanced by the fact that all ninety notes are Choice to Gem Uncirculated.

Considering that several hundred collectors are seeking out fancy serial numbered notes, a total population of 13 just isn't enough. This is amongst the best of the 13 and we expect a battle for this note. REMEMBER two things: 1) The BEP hasn't printed solid 9's for over three decades for general circulation, and 2) This note matches the run of $1 1969C FRNs D99999990A to D99999998A offered earlier in the Wilmore sale. $1 1969C FRN D99999999A PMG 65 EPQ Gem Uncirculated.

Fr. 1654 1934-D $5 S-A Serial #13131313
Here's one that is a miracle of survival - a super Serial # 13131313 that was evidently plucked from circulation and saved for us to enjoy. This is a very tough special serial number on an early $5 Silver Certificate and will be of interest to many! A small closed tear at top margin is mentioned for accuracy.
Grade: Fine/VF

Fr. 1700 $10 1933 #A00002222A
The 1933 $10 Silver Certificate was first displayed at the Chicago World's Fair in 1933 along with a $20, but no $20 was printed. The note carries the signatures of W.A. Julian and W.H. Woodin. The printing of 216,000 notes may actually be high because the printing was cut short due to a change in the silver policy. The inscription is different than all other Silver Certificates as it specifically mentions payable in 'silver coin': "The United States of America - Ten Dollars - payable in silver coin on demand". This is a special serial #A00002222A, one of many cool numbers that were saved, including the serial #1, which today is likely the most expensive small size note. We are proud to offer such a wonderful example. The paper quality is excellent but the centering is not quite up to Gem standards.

This low three-digit serial number FRBN originally sold as part of the Tom Flynn collection for $488.75 and again in early 2009 for $402.50.

Fr. 1850-H $5 1929 St. Louis H-A
A gorgeous example of this daunting St. Louis rarity that, despite the seemingly minor issue mentioned on the holder, is found here in very high grade. Rarely do uncirculated examples come up for sale because there are so few that exist. To that point, a solid AU note is probably worth $2,500 or more and we expect this bright and fully margined example to see some spirited bidding from more than one interested collector. PCGS notes: multiple pinholes at left.

Atlanta is a much tougher district for this denomination of FRBN. Bright white paper, robust inks and deep embossing all validate the PPQ assessment. For those who are so inclined to wonder, this same note sold in May 2010 for $690. At that time it was housed in a PMG Gem 65 EPQ holder.

San Francisco has long been considered one of the scarcest districts for FRBNs, and this is certainly no exception for the $50 denomination.

Fr. 1913-K $1 1985 Dallas K-A Obstruction
An R-9 mistake, on par with the double denomination in terms of rarity. This example contains a retained foreign object in the center part of the O in ONE across the back. Because of the small size, one collector will be able to add a high grade example at a very affordable cost.

Fr. 1935-K* $2 1976* Uncut Sheet of Four Notes Multiple Impressions
Our error specialist described it as 'an overnight discovery, nearly 40 years in the making, certain to become one of the most important discoveries during this decade.' Believed to be utterly unique! One of only two uncut sheets known to have mistakes, aside from those with engraving or mismatch errors. While somewhat light, the details become legible with a bit of study; flipping the sheet, when examining the extra images, helps enormously. As the orientation and spacing of the extra images indicates, it was printed on the Magna Quad press with the extraneous impressions upside down and angled. Because mistakes on uncut sheets are so rare, Bart does not even attempt to classify them. While he might not have an example to illustrate, you have the opportunity to own this unique piece this evening

A decade ago this extreme error realized around $3,000 and today it will be even clearer how rare and desirable it really is. An amazing error in every way. A wild and desirable example of a double note from a sheet that was folded over twice, once before the third printing and again before it was cut.

During the decades since this note last sold it has become even clearer how rare and desirable it is; it has become an iconic example of this short-lived design. This error will never be less desirable. This error is pristine of course, with the security strip which is more visible than on a printed note. This $100 is a rarely seen example that is missing the face, or second printing. No doubt this error will prove very rare over the years as the type was so short-lived.

Lot #1559 - Fractional Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
Fr. 1267 - 1269 15c Fourth Issue
This four piece lot includes two with blue-end paper and two without. One is XF, one AU and two CU.

Lot #1560 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1269 15c Fourth Issue
In recent months we have seen these sell for around $500 in this grade and we wouldn't expect much of anything different this time around.
Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ

Lot #1561 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1272SP 15c Third Issue Narrow Margin Face
A superlative example for the grade of this always popular Grant-Sherman specimen. Wonderfully printed and certainly with the look of a fully Ch. CU note since we cannot really find any handling to speak of.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58

Lot #1562 - Fractional Currency - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
Fr. 1274SP 15c Specimen
Wide margins, face only, and the Jeffries-Spinner signatures.
Grade: Ch. AU

Lot #1563 - Fractional Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
Experimental Face 25c Second Issue
A high quality, choice Experimental note. Hole punch cancelled.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64

Lot #1564 - Fractional Currency - ($ 375.00 - $ 525.00)
Fr. 1282 25c First Issue
A bright and exceptionally well margined example printed on the typical bright yellow paper. One of the most difficult to obtain of the First Issue varieties is this straight edge, no monogram note.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63

Lot #1565 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
Fr. 1301 25c Fourth Issue Thompson Autograph
Delicate fountain pen autograph of Carmi Thompson directly above the engraved signature of F.E. Spinner. Originally from the Wayte Raymond sale on November 14, 1926, then the 1958 ANA sale, and last the CAA-Heritage sale of Milt Friedberg s collection.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ

Lot #1566 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1308 & 1309 25c Fifth Issue
A pleasing 10 piece lot of 25c Fractionals.
Grade: UNC to Ch. CU

Lot #1567 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
50c Face Proof Second Issue
A lovely and rare example of this face proof that is not the same as most other second issue experiments that are known. This piece is virtually identical to the notes found in the Fractional Currency Presentation Books. The depth of printing detail is phenomenal and the paper is as bright as one could hope to find. Rare also due to the fact that it is uncancelled without the usual half moon cancels and stamped 'SPECIMEN.' There are believed to be either two or three known with the last bringing over $1,500 last year in a PCGS XF 45 holder. This note is clearly superior and so should the price it realizes once the hammer falls. Ex: John J. Ford, Jr. Collection.
Grade: PCGS Abt. New 53PPQ

Lot #1568 - Fractional Currency - ($ 650.00 - $ 950.00)
Fr. 1310 50c First Issue
A spectacular example of this First Issue perforated type note that has abundant margins and deep perforations.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64

Lot #1569 - Fractional Currency - ($ 250.00 - $ 500.00)
Fr. 1358 50c Third Issue
Unbelievably deep embossing and fresh paper surfaces give this green back Justice the look of a much better grade.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ

Lot #1570 - Fractional Currency - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
Fr. 1371 50c Third Issue
This fiber paper Justice note with both '1' and 'a' position indicators and widely spaced surcharges is in the top 10 of any fractional collector's want list. A lightly circulated example that has some minor issues but which hasn't suffered from any paper loss. PCGS notes: splits and repairs at right.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 40

Lot #1571 - Fractional Currency - ($ 600.00 - $ 900.00)
Fr. 1374 50c Fourth Issue
A sublime example of this increasingly popular Lincoln Fractional type. The note is absolutely original with three huge margins and a typically tight fourth. Boldly printed devices and spectacular ink colors on the Treasury seal give this note a lot of panache. In this grade, these have been generally selling for $500 or more in recent months.
Grade: PMG Ch. Abt. UNC 58 EPQ

Lot #1572 - Continental Currency - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CC-17 $7 November 29, 1775 Blue Counterfeit Detector
Superior embossing and absolutely fresh paper surfaces are seen on this glorious blue counterfeit detector note.
Grade: Ch. CU

Lot #1573 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
CC-21 $1/2 February 17, 1776
Signed by Ben Jacobs. Once believed to be a Jewish signer of Continental Currency but that theory has been debunked in recent years. His signature is still one that is avidly collected by that segment of the collecting community that concerns itself with such nuances. A wonderfully printed example that has been trimmed a little tight on a couple of sides but not really into the design. AU Fugio Fractional notes routinely sail by the $1,000 mark and this one will too. Trimmed.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 55

Lot #1574 - Continental Currency - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
CC-29 $7 February 17, 1776
Thick signatures and tremendous eye appeal will follow this Continental note wherever it goes. We have recently seen a couple of AUs stretch into the upper hundreds of dollars which should make this appealing Ch. CU example all the more valuable.
Grade: Ch. CU

Lot #1575 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,000.00 - $ 1,500.00)
CC-49 $4 November 2, 1776
PMG has only graded four CU examples of this number and this is one of them. Superbly margined with bold printing and great detail. There are some very light mounting stains in the back corners that has kept this note from being a multi-thousand dollar Gem. As it is, '64' graded Continentals surpass the thousand dollar mark with relative ease these days and we are expecting the present example to do the same. PMG notes: previously mounted, annotation.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 Net

Lot #1576 - Continental Currency - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
CC-75 $8 April 11, 1778
Uncirculated examples of this Yorktown issue are virtually unheard of and, apparently for this denomination, PMG hasn't heard of any since the best note they have graded was AU 58 Net. That particular note just sold a couple of months ago for over $1,500 and this example is equally up to the task. The technical grade appears to be CU or very nearly so but slightly net graded for a seemingly minor issue. The Ford provenance serves to add to the allure of this exceptional Continental. Ink lightened.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 55 Net

Lot #1577 - Continental Currency - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
CC-80 $7 September 26, 1778 Blue Counterfeit Detector
A sensational example that has all the eye appeal of a Gem but apparently with some faint handling lurking within.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 58 PPQ

Lot #1578 - Continental Currency - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
CC-85 $50 September 26, 1778
A boldly signed and very well printed example of this later Continental issue that shows lots of embossing seen through the holder.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55 PPQ

Lot #1579 - Continental Currency - ($ 800.00 - $ 1,200.00)
CC-97 $50 January 14, 1779
Continental currency is one of the most active areas of the currency market where it seems with each passing sale prices continue to push higher. Exceptionally well centered and with bold printing and signatures the net grade was assigned for what appears to possibly be a fallen mica flake on the back. PMG has only graded four examples of this number in CU grade. The note faces up like a solid near Gem and will likely sell for very good money. The note does have a paper pull.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63 Net

Lot #1580 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,300.00)
CT-187 40 Shillings June 1, 1775 Uncancelled
An absolutely spectacular note with only a single example graded higher. Very well margined and deeply embossed with three bold, red signatures and a superb look. Auction appearances at this grade level are few and far between but a few months ago we saw a PCGS AU 55 PPQ realize over $675 and a few years ago a 20 Shillings note in this same grade brought just under $1,000. Ex: Ford.
Grade: PMG Choice UNC 64

Lot #1581 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
CT-199 5 Shillings June 7, 1776
Slash cancel. As nice an example of any Connecticut Colonial issue that we can recall having seen. Snow white paper, mountainous embossing and huge margins validate the third-party grade.
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ

Lot #1582 - Colonial Currency > Connecticut - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
CT-216 4 Pence October 11, 1777 Uncancelled
Uncancelled examples from this small change issue are actually far scarcer than those from many of the commonly seen 1776 issues. A vertical center fold accounts for the grade.
Grade: PMG Ch. Abt. UNC 58

Lot #1583 - Colonial Currency > Georgia - ($ 425.00 - $ 575.00)
GA-69 $1/4 1776
This is a very nice example from this desirable two-denomination Fractional issue. PCGS notes there are splits and tears with a tape repair on the back, all of which are relatively unobtrusive. Even with those problems these generally realize several hundred dollars in this grade. Newman values this at $800 in VF and $1,500 in XF.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30

Lot #1584 - Colonial Currency > Maryland - ($ 1,750.00 - $ 3,250.00)
MD-117 $3 June 28, 1780
A spectacular example of this Maryland Guarantee issue that is fully signed and numbered and, most importantly, uncirculated. Only centering issues seem to keep this note from a far better grade. The $8 denomination is seen with by far the greatest frequency and this $3 note is the only one we can recall having seen in many years. PCGS does not have a Colonial population report but PMG has graded two of this number, with the finest one also graded '62.' A stunning piece that will make a great representative for anyone's Colonial collection.
Grade: PCGS New 62

Lot #1585 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 650.00 - $ 950.00)
MA-261 1 Shilling 6 Pence October 16, 1778
A very satisfying mid-grade Massachusetts Colonial that is always popular due to the codfish vignette on the front and the pine tree vignette on the back.
Grade: PCGS VF 30

Lot #1586 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
MA-279 $2 May 5, 1780 Uncancelled
Uncancelled examples of this common Colonial issue are much scarcer and rarely seen in CU grades. Lightly circulated and worth several hundred dollars at the very least.
Grade: PMG Abt. UNC 50

Lot #1587 - Colonial Currency > Massachusetts - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
MA-285 $20 May 5, 1780 Contemporary Counterfeit
Uncancelled and scarce as such. A broadly margined contemporary counterfeit of the highest denomination for this issue. While a regular uncancelled AU is a $400-$500 item, the counterfeits have always held their value on par with the real deal.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55

Lot #1588 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
NH-179 $1 April 29, 1780
PMG has only graded a single example above the Ch. CU 63 designation. A type that is often seen up to and including the AU grades but rarely ever in CU condition. There is a small repair from the hole cancel on what would otherwise be an even better note. Ex: Ford. Repaired.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 63 Net

Lot #1589 - Colonial Currency > New Hampshire - ($ 350.00 - $ 550.00)
NH-184 $7 April 29, 1780
Hole cancel. A light vertical center fold is seen on this colonial New Hampshire Guarantee note that has a minor mount remnant on the back.
Grade: AU

Lot #1590 - Colonial Currency > New Jersey - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
NJ-212 3 Shillings 1786
A much scarcer later New Jersey issue with the current example being a broadly margined and well detailed piece. In the past several months we have seen similarly graded examples realize over $500. Repaired internal splits.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15

Lot #1591 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NC-83 5 Pound 1756-1757
A much tougher North Carolina issue and one that was not found en masse in the hoard. This is the only denomination that your cataloger has seen in his vast number of years in the business. It has the usual multitude of minor issues but none are too serious and the note does remain wholly intact. This is a real plus considering how many of these have missing pieces. Splits, tears, damage, repairs, pieces replaced and redrawn.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15

Lot #1592 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
NC-124 20 Shillings April 23, 1761
A bright example of this earlier North Carolina issue that has retained all four signatures with some period endorsements on the back. Remarkably problem free for this type since there are so many hoard notes that has a plethora of issues.
Grade: PCGS XF 40

Lot #1593 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
NC-156c $1/2 April 2, 1776
A wonderfully detailed example that is one of the nicest we have seen. The crow and pitcher vignette is razor sharp and the paper remains bright. The fractional denomination notes from this issue are generally much scarcer and very desirable. Damage, splits, repairs, pieces added and redrawn.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 35

Lot #1594 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
NC-161 $4 April 2, 1776
Boldly printed details are seen on this bright and wonderfully signed note that bears the sheaf of wheat vignette. This sold for over $350 in a 2013 sale. Splits, tears, damage, repairs, pieces added and redrawn.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25

Lot #1595 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
NC-162b $5 April 2, 1776
This is one of the most fascinating series in all of Colonial currency, with 56 different varieties and a plethora of different denominations. The $5 note is the variety with the Triton vignette at lower left. Bright and very well signed with a couple of minor issues. The last few that we have seen sold, all apparent graded, that were around the XF grade all realized around $500 or so. This handsome note should perform in like manner. Stains, lower right corner repaired.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 45

Lot #1596 - Colonial Currency > North Carolina - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
NC-183b $5 May 15, 1779
Motto "Good Government Always Revere." A much tougher note that is very well signed and numbered with great paper quality. From the John J. Ford, Jr. Collection. Small repaired edge split.
Grade: PCGS Apparent XF 45

Lot #1597 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 550.00 - $ 750.00)
PA-109 5 Shillings May 1, 1760
Ben Franklin note. Signed by Tilbury, King and Gordon. Has some minor problems as most of these do but still a pretty example for the grade. A more challenging Franklin issue that we only encounter perhaps a couple times per year. Center split repaired, pinholes, minor stain.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15

Lot #1598 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
PA-133 3 Pounds March 1, 1769
An incredibly scarce note as we hardly ever see examples from this earlier March 1 issue. The March 10 issue, known as the Bettering House Money Issue, is the issue that we always see. Superbly signed and with great detail for the grade, the eye appeal is commensurate with a higher graded note. PCGS has not issued a Colonial Currency population report but PMG has graded a mere two examples from this entire issue.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #1599 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 200.00 - $ 400.00)
PA-146 5 Shillings March 20, 1771
A nice, scarce red and black issue with the Francis Hopkinson signature.
Grade: PCGS VF 30

Lot #1600 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 650.00 - $ 950.00)
PA-155 18 Pence April 3, 1772
A note that rarely is found with this degree of stunning eye appeal. Enormous margins, bold signatures and great printing quality all lead one to the assessment of a Gem grade. We have seen Ch. CU notes sell for several hundred dollars and we would expect to see that much and more from this little Gem.
Grade: PMG Ch. UNC 64 EPQ

Lot #1601 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
PA-178 20 Shillings July 20, 1775
Ultra bold signature and serial number highlight this Colonial. This is a much more challenging Pennsylvania issue where well printed CU notes realize several hundred dollars no matter what.
Grade: Ch. CU

Lot #1602 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 350.00 - $ 550.00)
PA-183 6 Pence October 25, 1775
A superbly printed and utterly fresh example of this 1775 small change note. Ex: John J. Ford Jr. Collection.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ

Lot #1603 - Colonial Currency > Pennsylvania - ($ 450.00 - $ 650.00)
PA-188 2 Shillings 6 Pence October 25, 1775
Stupendous printing quality is combined with ravishing inks and boldly applied signatures. A Gem for sure if a couple of the margins were just a little broader.
Grade: PCGS Ch. New 63 PPQ

Lot #1604 - Colonial Currency > Rhode Island - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
RI-267 $1/12 May 22, 1777
A very high grade example of this much scarcer fractional denomination. An enormously margined example with minimal handling for the grade. From the John J. Ford, Jr. Collection. Back mounting remnants, small edge tears.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50

Lot #1605 - Colonial Currency > Rhode Island - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
RI-282 $1 July 2, 1780
An astounding example for the grade since the note has superb signatures, exceptionally bold printing and mountainous embossing. PMG does comment 'with selvage' but your cataloger has always been of the opinion that notes such as this with broad sheet margins can pretty much be any grade that you think they should be. The merits of the note will decide its value.
Grade: PMG Gem UNC 65 EPQ

Lot #1606 - Colonial Currency > Rhode Island - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
RI-293 2 Shillings 6 Pence May 1786
A bright and enormously margined Rhode Island Colonial with mountainous embossing ranging across the paper. Ex: John J. Ford, Jr. Collection.
Grade: PCGS Superb Gem New 67 PPQ

Lot #1607 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
SC-133 $8 October 19, 1776
A well margined and boldly detailed example from this much tougher South Carolina issue. The problems listed on the holder are virtually invisible and only detectable by the most well trained eyes. Restorations, signatures redrawn.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30

Lot #1608 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
SC-137 $3 December 23, 1776 Fully Signed
Quite rare as a fully signed and issued note in this advanced state of preservation and with the PPQ designation credited by the grading cabal at PCGS. Uncirculated two-signature remainders are so common for this issue but to find one with four or more signatures is quite a chore. Exceptional grade and very desirable as such. Your cataloger has never seen a truly CU example and even nice AUs catapult over the four-figure threshold.
Grade: PCGS XF 40 PPQ

Lot #1609 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)
SC-139 $5 December 23, 1776
An ever popular emission of this South Carolina Colonial issue due to its proximity to having a Christmas date. A wonderfully detailed example that has both signatures and serial number. Small edge repair top left, paperclip rust stain on face.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Abt. New 50

Lot #1610 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 1,500.00 - $ 3,000.00)
SC-147 5 Shillings April 10, 1778
Tied for Top Pop with one other note. PMG has graded 16 examples of this Friedberg number and this note is at the top of the list. In the past we have seen lovely Gems such as this catapult way over the four-figure threshold and we assume that tonight's offering will be treated in kind by bidders in this robust market. Ex: Ford.

Grade: AU

Lot #1612 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
SC-157 $80 February 8, 1779
The $80 denomination is one of the earlier authorized denominations that are seen with far less frequency. We have seen problem VFs such as this one sell in excess of $500 in recent times. Stained, edge splits and tears, tape repairs.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25

Lot #1613 - Colonial Currency > South Carolina - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
SC-197 1 Shilling 3 Pence July 6, 1789
This a wonderful City of Charleston note that looks fully Ch. CU through the holder. We can see an outline of the plate impression on the back. It has been several years since we have seen an example of this denomination sold in any auction format.
Grade: PCGS Ch. Abt. New 55

Lot #1614 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
VA-84 5 Pound September 1, 1775
James River Bank form. Although this note has its share of problems it is intact and a much scarcer low denomination, large format note that we rarely see. Stains, splits and edge damage, repairs, backed.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #1615 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 750.00 - $ 1,500.00)
VA-87 12 Pounds September 1, 1775 Low Serial Number
This James River Bank form is a bright and well signed example with very low serial #1/23. We have seen a couple of PCGS Apparent VF 35 notes sell in the past couple of years for over $800 each. Splits and tears, backed.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 25

Lot #1616 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
VA-171 $1 May 1, 1780
An enormously margined and utterly fresh example of this later Virginia Guarantee issue. Fully signed on both front and back and with some of the best eye appeal we have seen. A solid four-figure note to be certain and one of only a handful of $1 notes that we can find in all auction archives.
Grade: PCGS New 62

Lot #1617 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 400.00 - $ 800.00)
VA-193 $200 October 16, 1780
This is easily one of the prettiest rice paper notes in one of the nicest conditions as you will be able to find. So many of these have a multitude of problems due to the fragile nature of the ultra thin paper. Even with a VF/XF grade it appears to be a conservative assessment. Gigantic margins are seen on all sides and the paper quality is nothing short of exceptional.
Grade: PCGS VF 30

Lot #1618 - Colonial Currency > Virginia - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
VA-206 $150 March 1, 1781 Top Pop
An outstanding example of this later issue Virginia Colonial that is the only CU example that we know of. PMG has never graded one in UNC with even AUs being a tough note to find. The note itself is bright and well signed with gorgeous paper surfaces. A great colonial for anybody looking to put together a 13 Colony type set of more than just the most common notes. PMG notes: Foreign substance (A trivial glue spot seen at the back right edge). Ex: Ford.

Grade: PCGS XF 45

Lot #1622 - Confederate Notes - ($ 675.00 - $ 825.00)
T-10 $10 July 25, 1861
Absolutely one of the prettiest examples we have seen in quite some time and deserving of many bids beyond what would seem reasonable for a nice VF/XF note. Superbly signed and boldly printed on bright paper. A modicum of light folds account for the grade. Small edge splits, small edge repair.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 30

Lot #1623 - Confederate Notes - ($ 450.00 - $ 850.00)
T-10 $10 July 25, 1861
This is one of those early Confederate types that is far more common in VG/Fine grade but which catapults in value once the VF threshold is met. PCGS mentions some minor issues but the overall eye appeal of the note is well above average for this type. Small edge and internal splits, stains, paper scuffs on left face.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #1624 - Confederate Notes - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)
T-13 $100 September 2, 1861 Fully Framed
With supreme printing quality and just some handling around the edges, this fully framed T-13 note should pass muster.

Lot #1627 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
T-21 $20 September 2, 1861
About 95% fully framed and possessing the coveted PPQ designation. It has boldly applied signatures and has retained excellent ink color. A modestly circulated example of a somewhat tougher early Confederate type. We see very few of these in any grade that have premium paper quality but this one seems quite deserving.

A gorgeous example of this tougher early Confederate type that has not oxidized as so many do and whose problems are relatively minor. What is so fascinating about this note is that it is fully framed, a fact that we do not discover on many examples of this type. The price jumps dramatically once one gets to the VF grade as evidenced by the last example we sold, a PCGS Apparent VF 30 that realized $2,760 a little over a year ago. Minor ink erosion repair in right signature, small edge splits.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #1629 - Confederate Notes - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
T-24 $10 September 2, 1861
An evenly circulated and colorful example of this desirable early Confederate type that becomes far more valuable in VF and better grades.
Grade: PCGS VF 25

Lot #1630 - Confederate Items - ($ 18,500.00 - $ 28,500.00)
T-27 $10 September 2, 1861 Plate A 14
Entirely new to the census, which stood at a paltry three pieces prior to this discovery. The T-27, in general, has surpassed all other numbers as the single rarest Confederate note, eclipsing the T-35 Indian Princess and miles ahead of the highly touted T-1 and T-2 $1,000 and $500 Montgomery issues. A wholesome example of this eminently collectible rarity, which has undergone archival restoration and stabilization by the industry s most skilled conservator; PCGS has nitpicked every millimeter of the note, citing 'COC; major restorations; design and signatures redrawn; repaired cancellations' on the label which, while no doubt technically correct, seem to reflect harshly on the attractiveness of the note and it s next owner. This should satisfy even the most critical collector who will be pleased to annex this Confederate rarity. If the T-27 is legendary, then the plate A 14 must rest unchallenged at the top.
Grade: PCGS Fine 12 Apparent

Lot #1631 - Confederate Notes - ($ 900.00 - $ 1,300.00)
T-29 $10 September 2, 1861
About 97% fully framed which is a minor miracle considering that so many of this type are poorly trimmed on more than one side. Evenly circulated and without any problems to mention, this should easily head off toward the thousand dollar mark.
Grade: PCGS VF 25

Lot #1632 - Confederate Items - ($ 300.00 - $ 600.00)

Grade: VF

Lot #1633 - Confederate Notes - ($ 600.00 - $ 900.00)
T-32 $5 September 2, 1861 Fully Framed
A well signed Confederate note that is not easy to find in high grade and without problems (high grade meaning VF or better). The fact that this note is fully framed puts it ahead of most of the other Fine and even lower end VF notes you will find as it simply has better eye appeal. With lower end VFs broaching the $2,000 mark it isn't such a stretch to see this one test the upper hundreds of dollars. Mounting remnants on back.
Grade: PCGS Apparent Fine 15

Lot #1634 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,350.00 - $ 1,850.00)
T-38 $2 September 2, 1861
A solid example of this much scarcer Confederate type that has the incorrect 1861 date. Signed by Meade and Overton and with pretty good margins for this type. Typically, problem Fines sell in the upper hundreds of dollars while VFs with issues virtually always sail handily over the $1,000 threshold. Small edge splits at left, minor stains.
Grade: PCGS Apparent VF 20

Lot #1635 - Confederate Items - ($ 500.00 - $ 1,000.00)

Lot #1636 - Confederate Notes - ($ 1,250.00 - $ 2,500.00)
T-42 $2 June 2, 1862
A full frame line can be seen on all sides of this exceptionally high grade T-42 Confederate note. Any CU example of this type is a scarce occurrence but a note this close to the Gem grade is almost unthinkable since we can't find any record of one having sold publicly. If we can use PMG's Population Report to extrapolate they have graded 89 T-42 notes with only one in this grade and one better. A stellar note befitting any Confederate Registry Set from either service.
Grade: PCGS Very Ch. New 64 PPQ

Lot #1637 - Confederate Items - ($ 350.00 - $ 600.00)

Grade: PCGS VF 20

Lot #1638 - Confederate Items - ($ 300.00 - $ 500.00)
T-45 $1 June 2, 1862
This type note is tougher to find in higher grades. This example is graded VF 30 by PCGS, making it an exception. PCGS notes that there are mounting remnants and minor paper pulls on the back, obvious signs that this note was once proudly displayed.
Grade: PCGS VF 30 Apparent

T-64 $500 1864 Serial #37727
Dark red overprint from high serial number range. While the PCGS technical grade is no doubt accurate, the aesthetic appeal of this note goes well beyond its technical merits. Bright, abundantly margined and with stunning visual impact, we expect that this note will be highly coveted by Confederate specialists and generalists alike.
Grade: PCGS XF 45

Lot #1647 - Confederate Notes - ($ 600.00 - $ 1,200.00)
T-69 $5 February 17, 1864 #1
A neat item that recently turned up. This 1864 $5 with serial #1 would be a wonderful addition to a collection of quality Confederate currency. Excellent condition but certainly one part of an old album, as there are some edge chips and old residue at left margin, and the inks have partially burned through the paper, particularly at the 'for Treasurer' signature. Still, an important item worthy of a fine collection.

The Franklin Bank had its charter approved December 23, 1810. It was actually a quality institution, and was eventually taken over by the Equitable National Bank of Baltimore in 1891. This is one of its earliest issues with printed date 1815. Apparently these were circulated unsigned and undated as small change notes. Rated as R-7 in the Maryland catalog.

March 1, 1859. This note came with the #1 National Bank Note on the same bank after it became a national bank. There is a tiny hole near the top but the beautiful vignette of the horse-drawn streetcars near the docks is extraordinary. This is one of the coolest vignettes I have seen on this ABNC note signed by J.H. Frothingham and C.C. Smith. I was led to believe that the note descended from the president's family.

Grady's Old Fashioned Circus from 1866 to 1879, based in Kenton, Ohio. One of Grady's acts was riding a horse bareback while playing a violin. The show was one of the earliest to travel with a balloon ascensionist as a free act. In mid-July, 1874, it was attached by the sheriff in Shelbyville, Illinois, and the property was advertised for sale. It was out with Grady & Beatty's Circus, 1879; the following year it was given sideshow performances at political meetings in Indiana. Grady died at his home in Indianapolis, Indiana at age 64, after having retired from business about three years prior.

West Chester Bank of Chester County $100-50 Uncut Pair
Uncut sheet of two notes that is extremely rare. Printers were Draper, Underwood, Bald & Spencer. The Panic of 1837 occurred at a time when all the conditions were ripe for a crash, credit was stretched and real estate soared. President Jackson's famous specie circular directed that public lands could only be paid for in silver or gold. That which was to be used to purchase land came back to the banks for redemption and redemption was impossible. Specie payments were halted and many businesses went into bankruptcy. Prudent management enabled the Bank of Chester County to weather the crisis. In August 1838 the bank resumed specie payments. The decade prior to 1837 was one of prosperity for the Bank of Chester County. When its first charter expired in 1825 it was rechartered for a period of 12 years. In 1837 it received its third charter, this time for 15 years the stock was worth $40 per share. The circulating notes were renewed from time to time as needed. In 1834 the $5, $10, $20, $500 and $1,000 were made from new plates.
