NEW LARGE SIZE:

1. $50 1880 LT, Fr.164, Ben Franklin + America. Although over 250 in the census, virtually none in Unc–an unexplaine­d anomaly that serious collectors have been aware of for decades. This has a great look with even margins and pleasing color and comment of minor repairs that are not readily detectable. PMG VF 30, net. .. $6995

2. $50 1922, Fr.1200, Fifty Dollar Gold Cert. This note faces up like a well-margined Ch CU. Flip it over and the back is as vivid and deep orange as the day it was printed. Some tiny rust freckles appear, but aren’t optionable and not bad enough to ‘net.’ Great look; better value! PMG Ch VF

35. ................................................. $2495

3. $20 1905 GC, Fr. 1180, Technicolo­r. An attractive and affordable option for a collector seeking an example that won’t ‘break the bank’ like cost-prohibitiv­e higher grades. Comments repair and margins reconstruc­ted add to aesthetics and help the price. Pics online. PMG Fine 12, net. ................................................ $2450

4. $20 1914 FRN, Fr. 971a, New York. Bright paper and bold inks on this Big Apple blue seal. PMG VF 30................................ $345

5. $20 1918 FRBN, Fr. 823, Atlanta. A most attractive example of this scarce type with less than 50 pieces in the census and no public sales of any Uncs. This Atlanta $20 displays bright paper, sharp ink colors, and light, even wear. Comment of ‘stain’ seems a bit trivial for the grade. PMG VF 25..... $3550

6. $5 1869 LT, Fr. 69, Rainbow. This note displays all the color a discerning collector would desire and faces up like a strong AU-CU. Little spot of adhesive that’s barely noticeable and hidden in the design. Ch EF-AU............................................. $3250

7. $2 1869 LT, Fr. 42, Rainbow. Looks 10+ points under-graded. Great color on this original deuce! PMG VF 30EPQ........ $4200

8. $10 1869 LT, Fr.96, Rainbow.Great color remains with comment of pinholes that are noticed only when backlit. Bold inks on bold sides. PCGS-B VF 20. ...................... $1745

9. $20 1902-ND FNB of Kemmerer, WY Ch#5480. An attractive mid-grade large size note from this always in demand state that’s rarely available. Some PHs become visible only when the note is backlit, but not bad enough for graders to comment. There are no public auction records of sales of this denominati­on certified in any grade by any grading service.PMG VF 20. ............. $2995

10. $20 1902-ND FNB of Green River, WY Ch# 10698. A tough Wyoming bank with less than a dozen large reported and no public sales of any certified $20 from this bank. Evenly circulated with no comments, but like above, this has a few PHs when backlit not mentioned by grading service. PMG Fine

12. ................................................. $3250

DISCOVERY ERROR:

11. $5 1988 FRN UNIQUE Canceled Plate

Print.The oversized note was printed from canceled plates with four large green “Xs” on the back and four large black “Xs” on the front. The note is devoid of the overprint. Authentica­ted and graded by PMG as Choice Uncirculat­ed 63EPQ and designated “cancelled plate print.” Interestin­gly, although not annotated by PMG, is that the note originated from the end of the paper roll, as the tell tale signs of vertical matte markings appear along the wide edge. Although mere conjecture and speculatio­n, the most educated assumption one can arrive at, barring additional input and/or correction from the BEP, is that another portion of the plate cylinder was severely damaged causing the press operator to cancel all plates with four “Xs” on each side prior printing the sheet and presumed subsequent destructio­n of the entire plate cylinder rendering it unusable for additional printings. Bart commented “after nearly onehalf century of studying US paper money errors, I’ve become a bit jaded; yet this unique discovery piece ignites my passion.” PMG Ch Unc 63EPQ. .................... $14,950

12. $5 1995 FRN Insufficie­nt Inking Error. Left 40% of the back is entirely absent. PMG Gem Unc 66EPQ. .............................. $450

13. $1 1988 FRN Insufficie­nt Inking Error. Left 30% of back is entirely absent. PMG Ch Unc 64EPQ. ................................. $225

14. $1 1988 FRN Insufficie­nt Inking Error. Left 30% of back is entirely absent. PMG Abt Unc 55EPQ. ...................................... $195

15. $20 1977 FRN Insufficie­nt Inking Error. A horizontal mistake where the top half of the back design is absent before gradually presenting the inked details. PMG Abt Unc 55EPQ. ............................................. $595

16. $1 1981 FRN Insufficie­nt Inking Error–

Serial #87. The preceding serial numbers are somewhere between faint and nonexisten­t while the suffix letter is also hard to locate. As such, all that’s easily noticed are only two digits in the serial number, 87. PMG Abt Unc 55EPQ. ................................ $295

NEW SMALL SIZE:

17. $1,000 1934 FRN, One Thousand. Just purchased. Pic shows how great it looks even with comment of ‘minor surface damage’ on the front left margin not bad enough for ‘details.’ Last one to sell publiclyl in this grade brought $8400 in a SB sale in 2023. Quick flip for us; bargain for you. PMG Ch AU 58. ....................................... $7450

18. $1 1928 LT, Fr. 1500 Red Seal Ace. We can’t keep these in stock. Just picked it up with great look and exceptiona­l embossing. PMG Ch Unc 63EPQ. ......................... $595

19. $1 1928 LT, Fr.1500 Red Seal Ace. Evenly circulated, problem-free, and affordable. Bold inks. LCGS Fine 15..................... $135

Each has about 100 pages of content with topics related to history, culture, and the natural world, with both written articles and photograph­s.Includes roughly 20 pages of vintage advertisem­ents as well, which provide an incredible look into life in the 1910s and 1940s. Two magazines included. ............................................ $55

22. Civil War Union Minié Ball These three ring, .58 caliber Minié ball bullets were typically used by Union forces during the American Civil War.
