Three Obsolete Banknotes certified by PCGS, as described.
These probably offer value about equal to each other in this trio of obsolete Southern notes. First is Ocee Bank, Cleveland, TN $1(PCGS 58), an ABNCo proof that has been neatly hole-punch cancelled. ...

Uncut sheet of Obsoletes, PMG Superb GemCU-67 EPQ.
Brock Megran Collection. Absolutely incredible eye-appeal stems from fine, near-immaculate creme paper quality that displays scarcely any evidence of toning or age upon the notes themselves. All are...

Uncut sheet of Obsoletes, PMG GemCU-66 EPQ.
Brock Megran Collection. Huge margins add to the eye-appeal (and probably the grade) of this "remainder" sheet of uncut obsolete notes that "promise to pay James Monroe" $1, $2, $3, and $5...

Miscellaneous Currency
Uncut sheet of Obsoletes, PMG GemCU-65 EPQ.

Military Payment Certificate
Series 481 .05 Replacement Military Payment Certificate PCGS AU-58/ink on face.
Series 418 5-cent replacement MPC. What essentially appears to be a ChCU note has to drop into the AU level due to writing in the very top margin (which proves it "circulated"). An extremely scarce...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1862 $5 PCGS F-12/edge and internal tears/repairs.
Fr# 61a. "Repairs" as it pertains to the PCGS "F-12 apparent" grade doesn't really have any obvious meaning, as the small splits and internal pinholes still show plainly. This is a situation where...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1869 $1 PCGS VF-20.
Fr# 18. Fewer folds than expected allow for the VF grade, and the ink still shows a little vibrancy with pleasantly saturated green and cardinal red. Fair eye-appeal for the type.

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1869 $20 PCGS Good-4.
Fr# 127. Even at the humble PCGS G-4 grade, this 1869 rainbow note commands strong interest due to its scarcity. Despite the heavy wear, the note remains intact in defiance of numerous internal...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1875 $2 AU.
Fr# 47. A light, bright 1875 $2 legal tender is tough to find in any grade and should prove attractive to the serious type collector. A couple of corners show light folds, and that advocates the AU...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1880 $5 Large Seal Red Numbers PMG AU-58.
Fr# 71. Even if this were a fully CU note, a thin bottom margin would keep it out of the choice levels, but PMG suggest faint handling with their AU-58 grade, rendering the point moot. But, where oh...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1880 $5 Small Seal PMG CHCU-63/great embossing.
Fr# 80. PMG notes "great embossing" on the back of the holder, but we'd be tempted to note excellent paper quality as well, given the pleasing brilliance and lovely ink. A beautiful woodchopper with...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1880 $20 Small Seal Blue Numbers F.
Bradford Pear Collection. Fr# 143. Strictly original, unmolested quality shows very obviously for this modestly wavy note. Some soiling shows at the primary vertical folds as viewed from either...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1901 $10 VF.
Fr# 121. Hovering between VF and extremely-fine, the note shows no real creases, but does display a bit of waviness throughout. Pleasing original paper quality for this 1901 bison note, and...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1907 $5 Star PCGS F-15/small edge splits/stains.
Fr# 91 Star. A scarce woodchopper star note in "Fine apparent" grade according to PCGS, the note shows heavy wear and a small split at the top center. Light soiling is hardly unexpected of the grade...

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1907 $5 PCBLIC error AU.
Fr# 91. A scarce 1907 woodchopper, this one shows the famous "PCBLIC" error on the back. The note appears fully UNC at first glance, but a fold at the bottom right corner bestows an AU evaluation.

U.S. Note Legal Tender
1907 $5 PCGS AU-58.
Fr# 91. Hands-down, the appearance is that of a blazing CU, since any existing fold(s) cannot be seen "through the plastic" -- unless the extreme bottom right corner shows a tiny crease. Rather...
