$4,000-6,000

France.” Rim has been very slightly ground.

3.5” tall
Estimate:
$1,000-1,500

an intricate spider web. Marked in cameo “Daum Nancy” with cross of Lorraine.
Size:
3 3/8” tall
Estimate:
$1,200-1,800
Lot 17 - Daum Nancy Dutch Harbor Bowl
A large Daum Nancy bowl. Exterior shows Dutch harbor scene with sailboats, windmills, and
small cottages. Piece is signed “Daum Nancy” with cross of Lorraine. Interior of bowl shows

completeness only.

8” wide, 3.25” tall
Estimate:
$1,500-2,000
Lot 18 - 1785 Vermont Copper
This piece of Vermont history shows a hill with pine trees in the distance and a plow in the fore-
ground. Despite apparently being somewhat bent, this is still a very easy coin to like, and should
make a perfect example for the type. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)

Lot 19 - 1872 Two Cent
Like all the coins offered today, there was only time to submit this coin once, and PCGS didn’t
like the color. Given that this coin was purchased in the 1950s and untouched since then, we feel
like the coin looks the way it should and certainly has more upside than down side. (From Max
Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS UNC Details
Estimate:
$1,500-2,500
Lot 20 - 1877 Indian Head Cent
The 1877 Indian head cent is a key for the series. Just 852,500 were minted. The example here
appears nice for the grade and would certainly be acceptable for a circulated set. (From Max
Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS Good 6
Estimate:
$500-700
Lot 21 - 1803 Small 3 Draped Bust Dollar
Here is a problem free 1803 $1 coin. Just looking at the reverse you would certainly expect this
coin to be better than a 20. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS VF20
Estimate:
$2,000-3,000
Lot 22 - 1804 25c Draped Bust Quarter
This is a very scarce coin! Only 6,738 were ever minted and the vast majority of the certified ex-
amples are heavily circulated. There is a capital I on both sides of lady liberty, hence the genuine
Good details grade. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS Good Details
Estimate:
$1,500-2,500
Lot 23 - 1893 Isabella Commemorative Half Dollar
This coin might appear a bit dark at a glance. However, an in person inspection reveals some
really lovely blue toning in the obverse fields. This is certainly a choice and original coin. (From
Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS MS64
Estimate:
$400-600
Lot 24 - 1895-O Barber Quarter
The grading experts at PCGS found some light signs of wear on this very pleasing barber quarter.

A lightly circulated but darkly toned low denomination gold coin.
Grade:

Estimate:
$250-300
Lot 27 - 1855 $3 Gold Coin
The mintage on the 1855 $3 gold coin was just 50,555. The example here is fairly graded and
considering the relative scarcity and the uniqueness of the denomination, it could prove to be one
of the better value buys in the auction. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:
PCGS AU50
Estimate:
$800-1,200
Lot 28 - 1843-C $5 Liberty Gold Coin
This scarce coin had a mintage of just 44,277 pieces. And that entire issue was likely well-used
and spread across the eastern half of the United States even before Lincoln entered the White
House. While having a nice overall appearance, this piece of Charlotte gold was just a bit too
shiny for the graders so they called it cleaned. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)
Grade:

Estimate:
$1,500-2,500

such a seemingly reasonable price. (From Max Mehl customer buying in the 1950s)

Lot 52 - Bahamas - P16a 1936 (1953) Five Pounds
This perhaps seemingly common note will jump off the page to the purist and technical collectors
viewing it. Pick 16a for the Bahamas is just listed as rare and not priced in any grade. This is a
signature combination rarity similar to the US fr. 229a, only the 16a is likely dozens of times rarer.
Grade:
PMG VF 25
Estimate:
$4,000-6,000
Lot 49 - Bahamas - P4a 1919 One Pound
This is the highest denomination issued for the 1919 series. The note has too many folds to be
considered XF, but is a premium VF that should sell well.
Grade:
VF
Estimate:
$2,000-3,000
Lot 50 - Bahamas - P6 1919 (1930) Ten Shillings
Collectors will recognize this note as the key to the post-1900 Bahamas Government type set.
Despite having a few pinholes and some margin nicks, this should make a nice placeholder for
the denomination until another George V 10 shilling becomes available at an uncertain, but likely
distant future offering.
Grade:
VG
Estimate:
$700-1,000
Lot 51 - Bahamas - P7 1919 (1930) One Pound
A nice circulated George V Bahamas note with sailing ships and palm trees.
Grade:
Fine
Estimate:
$600-800
Lot 53 - British Honduras - P20 1939 $1
A choice VF George VI October 2nd 1939 $1 note. The paper doesn’t display any hard folds. It is
mostly just handling and bends. This note, in this condition, is far less available than the standard
guide would have you believe.
Grade:
VF+
Estimate:
$600-800
Lot 54 - Canada - NF-12d Newfoundland Government 1920 $1
There are only about 200 serial numbers listed for the 1920 $1 Newfoundland note in the Cana-
dian note registry. Of that 200, only nine are listed as being in uncirculated condition, and none
of those (as far as we can tell) has ever been up for auction. I believe that is a textbook definition
of rare and closely held. So today’s offering marks a very rare opportunity to add this scarce and
abnormally high grade note to your holdings. Only 407,000 were issued. The odds of more UNC
examples being found are slim.

A lovely black and white proof of this early Montreal note that has four ample margins and
vividly printed details. This is at the very least a rare proof. We could find no other auction
appearances. The Apparent grade was assigned for a couple of small, barely discernible mounting
remnants on the back.

Lot 58 - Canada, Ottawa - Bank of Ottawa 1913 $5
This new addition to the Canadian census vaults to the top of the list of just 32 pieces known
for the date and denomination. This is certainly one of the more beautiful chartered notes. The
front has a sunburst of orange color set against a mostly green design. The central vignette shows
a group of loggers in a partially cleared forest. The note is clearly original and never pressed.
Where the vaguely mentioned “minor repair” is located is unclear and certainly shouldn’t nega-
tively affect your opinion of this beauty.

Lot 59 - Canada, Toronto - Home Bank $5 March 1 1917
This newly discovered chartered note should take collectors by surprise. This note is by far the
nicest of just ten reported pieces for the year and denomination. It has been 12 years since the
series was available at auction. We think this note is estimated conservatively and could very well
sell for more given that chances to buy the best of a few are so limited.

Lot 61 - Canada - DC-14a 1897 $2 Dominion of Canada
This is a Canadian rarity that will surely not be missed by our Northern bidders. There are less
than 20 1897 red brown back $2 dominion notes known to exist. This lovely PPQ example just
surfaced in Vermont and was consigned to our sale. It is priced at $8,500 in Fine and $16,000 in
VF, so our estimate might be too conservative considering that a problem free note of this caliber
should trade for a premium over the catalog value.

Lot 63 - Canada - DC-25o 1923 $1 Dominion of Canada
Dominion notes of this quality are seldom seen. Having margins for a gem grade are a huge

This is the scarcer of two design types on the English version of the Bank of Canada 1935 $20

on the back of the note where some wallet use is noted along with some corner dings.

Lot 65 - Canada - BC-9b 1935 $20 Bank of Canada
The first thing I notice about this English version Bank of Canada note is that the centering is far

an image of a young Queen Elizabeth II. Her age and reign are put into perspective when you see
a note from 1935 bearing her portrait.

A great early example of the first two dollar bill design used by the United States. It shows a por-

We don’t see any folds present on this five dollar rainbow. It does have a small touch of toning

Any person who has ever considered buying a compound interest treasury note can attest to how

Lot 142 - Fr. 936* - 1914 $10 FRN Star
If your instincts tell you that this looks rare, then listen to your gut. This is in fact just the third
star reported for this Friedberg number from the Minneapolis district.
Grade:
PCGS VG 10
Estimate:
$2,000-3,000
Lot 143 - Fr. 1133-B - 1918 $1000 FRN
This is a very solid and clean looking 1918 $1000 federal reserve note from the New York district.
This and the 1907/1922 gold certificates are the only large size one thousand dollar banknotes that
can be purchased for less than $100,000. If you have been in the market for one then this high
grade VF would be a great option. These are usually much more expensive in a dealer’s case than
at auction. Like most notes from this series, the example here has some moderate restoration.
Grade:
PMG VF 35 Net
Estimate:
$20,000-25,000
Lot 144 - Fr. 1173 - 1922 $10 Gold Certificate RADAR
Here is an unexpected find in the large size category. This $10 gold certificate sports a fancy
radar serial number. And to up the ante, it is also a binary radar. We don’t have any census data
for these, but we have never handled one before.
Grade:

Estimate:
$500-700
Lot 145 - Fr. 1173 - 1922 $10 Gold Certificates
A very crisp and original consecutive pair of 1922 $10 gold certificates. If you are counting folds
then these might be 35q to you. However, given the color, crispness, and unquestionable original-
ity, we are calling both of these XF.
Grade:
XF
Estimate:
$600-800
Lot 146 - Fr. 1173 - 1922 $10 Gold Certificate
This is your classic three vertical fold XF. As is typical of the grade, this beautiful note likely saw
no real time in circulation and has wound up in its present condition just because of storage folds.
The prices on gold notes accelerate quickly past this grade.
Grade:
PMG XF 40 EPQ
Estimate:
$400-600
A light horizontal and vertical bend account for the only wear on this lovely and original 1922
$10 gold certificate that was awarded the exceptional paper quality designation.
Grade:
PMG AU 50 EPQ
Estimate:
$600-800
I predict this will next be seen in a AU 50q holder of some type. This 1922 $10 gold certificate is
too fresh and original to not get graded. If it only sells for the high estimate then there will still be
money to be made with it.

Lot 149 - Fr. 1173* - 1922 $10 Gold Certificate Star

The backs of these 1882 $20 gold certificates are so often compromised. However, the back on
this example is a dark orange that looks very fresh for a circulated note. The grade seems spot
on and will be a target for collectors tired of wading through the drove of apparent and net notes
out there.
Grade:
PCGS VF 25
Estimate:
$1,200-1,800
This is just the second technicolor note we have had the pleasure of offering. Any collector

is why you buy these. We are calling it F/VF, but it looks as nice or better than a PCGS 20 we had
in the February sale.

Grade:
PMG Superb Gem 67 EPQ

Here is a low two digit serial number 65 red seal $100. This would be popular just as a type note,

Lot 167 - Fr. 1618 - 100 1935H $1 Silver Certificates
Here are 100 1935H with motto $1 silver certificates. The pack has three stars that replace gaps in

still CU or better. This is a neat numismatic item and great for educational purposes if you ever
needed to explain replacement notes.

Estimate:
$600-1,000
Lot 169 - Fr. 1657* - 1953B $5 Silver Certificate Star
A center fold is the only trace of circulation we can find on this newly reported star note. A
touch of embossing and some paper wave are still present as well, making the grade of 40 seem a
bit harsh. Of course the 1953B $5 silver certificate star is the key to the series and certainly one
of the rarest post 1928 stars. I would wager you will have a tough time finding more eye appeal
for the price.

This is certainly one of the sexier items in the small size section today. Serial number one
notes never go out of style. This piece from the Richmond district was haphazardly cut into
when a fresh brick was unwrapped. Of course the majority of the value here is in the number,
E00000001A, so don’t let the minor condition issue steer you away from this sure fire numismatic

Fancy serial number collectors take note. This is one of just six solid serial number stars known

This is definitely one of the coolest items in our summer auction. There are 100 consecutive
notes in this full pack. Centering and quality ranges from CU to Superb Gem. The bottom right
corner of about 60% the pack shows a little bit of exterior staining that looks like it could be
picked off or otherwise removed. This is certainly a great opportunity to buy an interesting item
that is sure to get rarer as people break these open for grading.

Lot 216 - Fr. 2201-H* - 1934 $500 FRN Star
Census records show that this new discovery is just the fourth 1934 $500 star enumerated for the
St. Louis district. The other notes grade AU, low VF, and unknown. It is certainly safe to assume
that this CU piece is the best of its very small group. It is a last minute consignment from Costa
Rica, so the grade of 64 with 4-5 pinholes reflects an accurate grade of a note completely out of
the woodwork. While we don’t think the note will sell extremely cheap, it certainly has a lot of
upside for the flipper or long term speculator, as $500 stars continue to remain scarce.

Lot 219 - Fr. 2202-B - 1934A $500 FRN
This $500 bill will do more than just impress the non-collectors who have never seen one. Very
few $500s ever left the BEP with the margins for a 66 grade. And of course the majority of those
that did were then immediately used in commerce. This New York example was lucky enough be
perfectly preserved.

This is the highest grade gold certificate we have had the pleasure of auctioning. It is one of

A great “butterfly fold” error is found on this moderately circulated Legal Deuce. This example

The nationals portion of the auction gets kicked off with this newly discovered serial number 1 note on Alabama. This becomes the first serial number one note reported for the charter. It is a type2 five that

Lot 264 - Eufaula, AL - Ch. 2309 - $5 Series 1875
Due to its strategic position on the Chattahoochee River, Eufaula was an important commercial center in the South long before other more “household” name towns came into prominence. It is because of the
town’s early prosperity that The Eufaula National Bank was able to open its doors in 1875. However, as rail and river transport became less important, Eufaula hit a depression and the bank failed in 1901 after is-
suing just first charters and brown backs. Today, all money from the bank is scarce. With this new addition the census stands at a mere four pieces, only one of which has a grade or auction result associated with
it. In terms of condition, this piece is Fine with about three pinholes and five punches bigger than pinholes but not large enough to be called tears - all of which are only visible when held to light.

These multiple impression errors are rare and freaky. It takes a minute for casual observers to
decide if their vision is blurry or if something is wrong with the note. It looks like a lower right
corner bump is the reason this in a 58 and not a 66.

Lot 269 - Central City, CO Territory - Ch. 2129 - $1 Series 1875
Here is a great new discovery that should be of interest to both territorial and first charter ace collectors. This piece was recently found in a safety deposit in Colorado and immediately consigned to our auc-
tion. It is in fact the first and only documented Colorado ace from any town outside of Denver or Pueblo. Anyone who has visited Central City recently might think of it as an odd place to have had a territorial
national bank. However, at one point in time Central City was widely reported as “The Richest Square Mile on Earth.” That claim stems from a massive 1859 gold discovery. Within just two months of the
discovery the population of the area grew to 10,000 and Central City was incorporated. To put that size into perspective, Denver had a population of only 4,749 in 1860. And apparently the new population of
Central City wasn’t just a boom and bust like so many mining locales. The town’s original national bank opened in 1866. This ace is from The First National Bank; it opened in 1873 and was around until 1933.
The note here is a very bright and clean Fine. This charter only issued 1220 sheets of series 1875 aces, so the odds of finding another example from here are slim. This should be an attractive buying opportunity
for any collector looking for a Colorado ace who doesn’t want to settle for a many times more common example from Denver or Pueblo.

This serial number one blue seal from Arkansas originally showed up as part of the Hendrix col-

collection due to its size and the market timing. I expect this peach to get much more attention
today. No other #1 large size notes from Arkansas have been available since that time. This piece
has lovely two color signatures and its only wear is from a few storage folds.

Gold Banknote
Finding any national gold bank note can be a challenge. However, if you want to make the search
even more difficult, then try to locate one from a bank outside of San Francisco. The note we
are offering is from San Jose and has been graded as Fine 12. PMG notes repairs, which is very
common for this series. Gold and silver coins were greatly preferred over banknotes at the time
this note originally circulated. So these traded hands frequently as people did not want to get
caught holding what could wind up being a worthless piece of paper. And that is the exact reason
these are rare today.
