1914 $5.00 Saint Louis. Blue Seal. AU. 1914 $5.00 Saint Louis. Blue Seal. AU.
Lot Title: 1914 $5.00 Saint Louis. Blue Seal. AU.
Description: Fr-873. Only a light center fold keeps this scarce Carter Glass Federal Reserve Note from grading Unc. It is still fully crisp and shows the brightness you would expect from a Choice AU note.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $600.00
High Estimate: $700.00

1914 $5 Blue Seal St. Louis Star F-15/minor stains.
Fr# 873 Star. Hard-to-find Carter Glass star note that has a slightly distorted shape due to heavy wear. Someone may have attempted to remove a paper clip stain at far right at some time.
43The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$240.00
1914 $5.00 New York Blue Seal. PMG XF-40 EPQ.
Fr# 849. Scarce John Burke/Carter Glass signature variety benefits from a high grade for this PMG-certified 1914 New York five. Well preserved and strong for the XF-40 grade, with excellent quality...
44The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$340.00
1914 $5.00 Blue Seal Dallas. AU.
Fr# 887-B. Wonderful, full-contrast for the AU level, with dark ink and nice paper. The upper margin shows some minor wear, leading to the grade. Tight on the bottom margin.
159The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$425.00
1914 $5.00 Blue Seal San Francisco (L-Star). Good.
Fr# 891 L-Star. Generally common as a type and therefore not usually that desirable in low grade, but this strong "good" example is a star note, and that contributes mightily to the value. "255" has...
161The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$340.00
1914 $5.00 Richmond Blue Seal. CHCU.
Fr# 860. Almost precisely centered with a slight anti-clockwise slant, this note provides superb eye-appeal that seems to exceed our Choice CU assessment. A fantastic Richmond District Federal...
163The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$650.00
Four 1914 $5.00 Philadelphia Blue Seal. AU.
Fr# 855. An excellent selection of four notes that each look UNC at first glance. Closer examination reveals trivial wrinkling at the top and/or bottom edges, but each note is also fairly well...
74The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$625.00
Sequential pair of 1914 $5.00 Chicago. Blue Seal. CHCU.
Fr. 871-B. A pair of sequential blue-seal fives, and both of them are incredibly attractive, possibly GEM quality. B-variety notes that look like they were just printed yesterday in this two note...
50The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$250.00
1914 $5.00 St. Louis. Blue Seal. XF.
Fr-873H. Better 1914 Carter Glass note, one of two similar in today's sale. Just lightly folded, but bright with sharp ink and seals.

1914 $5.00 St. Louis. Blue Seal. XF.

151The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$290.00
1914 $5.00 Cleveland. Blue Seal. AU.
Fr-857. Has an uncirculated appearance because a light pressing hides evidence of a center fold. Great eye-appeal on this better Carter Glass signature from Cleveland.

1914 $5.00 Chicago. Blue Seal. CHCU.

1914 $5.00. St. Louis Blue Seal Star. F.
Fr-275A. There is a thumb-shaped stain just to the left of middle on the front side's bottom margin, and the right third of the back shows a wallet stain. Even so, the Fine grade is probably...
118The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$400.00
1914 $5.00 New York Blue Seal Star. VF.
Fr-847a. Mostly white paper, possibly from being cleaned, and vibrant ink presence. A couple of russet flecks on the top-right margin, but otherwise pleasing.
172The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$475.00
1914 $5.00 Cleveland. Blue Seal. CGA GemCU-66.
Fr-859c. Pleasing C note example showing deep and rich blue, black, and green ink on bright white paper.

158The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$400.00
1914 $5.00 Dallas. Blue Seal. VF+.
Fr-885. Bright and crisp enough to call XF, but light toning on the reverse and flattened folds probably prevent that grade. Fabulous color remains on this somewhat tough Carter Glass Dallas type.
160The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$475.00
1914 $5.00 St. Louis. Blue Seal. AU.
Fr-873. Seldom seen in high grade, and an example of the Carter Glass type. It has been lightly pressed, but the note is crisp and bright, and the center fold is barely noticeable.
161The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$1,200.00
Two Sequential 1914 $5.00 St. Louis. Blue Seal. AU.
Fr-873. This sequential pair of the difficult Carter Glass Friedberg number are both well cut and crisp. One appears lightly pressed, while the other looks original.
162The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$330.00
1914 $5.00 New York. Blue Seal. CU.
Fr-849. An uncommon Carter Glass note on New York. It is crisp, but appears to have been lightly pressed at one time. Great color remains.
163The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$400.00
1914 $5.00 Chicago. Blue Seal. PCGS CHCU-63.
Fr-871b. Scarce, high grade Type b with what PMG observed as exceptional paper quality. The top margin was tightly cut, but otherwise this note appears perfect.
155The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$380.00
1914 $5.00 St. Louis. Blue Seal. CU.
Fr-873H. This is a nice Blue Seal that would be a sweet addition to your Type Set. The margins are o.k., and the corners are sharp.
156The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$290.00
1914 $5.00. Blue Seal Chicago. PMG CHCU-63.
Fr-871B. Scarce B variety from Chicago District. While the cut is a bit uneven, and the margins are tight in areas, this is still a beautiful note with exceptional paper quality.
