1934 $500 St. Louis light green seal PMG CHCU-64 EPQ. 1934 $500 St. Louis light green seal PMG CHCU-64 EPQ.
Lot Title: 1934 $500 St. Louis light green seal PMG CHCU-64 EPQ.
Description: Fr# 2201-Hlgs. This is a very high-quality note that looks every bit of the very choice CU grade assigned in spite of slight favoring of the bottom margin. A delicate grey stain in the extreme right margin must be mentioned, but the vibrant paper and brilliant ink dominate the eye-appeal.

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: $1,600.00
High Estimate: $1,900.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.
Hammered Price: $2,700.00

1934 $500 St. Louis light green seal PMG AU-58/pinholes.
Fr# 2201-Hlgs. Pleasant eye-appeal emanates from this hard-to-find light green seal on St. Louis. The right side shows some grey soiling that definitely bars the UNC grade level. Very popular and...

1934 $500 St. Louis light green seal PMG AU-55/pinhole.
Fr# 2201-Hlgs. Eighty percent of the note from the left edge over appears fully ChCU, but the right edge shows clear evidence of handling, hence the grade. From the back, one slight wave can be seen...

1934 $500.00 Chicago. PCGS AU-50.
Fr. 2201a-G. Slight wear appears at the corners and the left of center of the lower edge is lightly soiled, but otherwise the note is obviously close to "new".

86The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$700.00
1934 $500.00 Philadelphia. CGC VF-25.
Fr-2201C. The light green seal and numbers are far brighter than should be expected of a VF grade, as is the paper. While not readily apparent in the slab, this note is a bit wrinkle, and the...
87The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$700.00
1934 $500.00 Cleveland. CGA VF-35.
Fr-2201D. Just a touch too creased to meet an XF grade, but a pleasing vivid note overall.

1934 $500.00 Boston. XF.

1934 $500.00 Chicago. CGC XF-40.
Fr-2201G. While the paper quality and vivid color seem suggestive of a higher grade, some bumps along the top and bottom margins preclude higher consideration. Very nice for type purposes.

1934 $500.00 Dallas. XF.
Fr-2201K. A light green seal off the Dallas district. Attractive for the XF grade.

1934 $500.00 St. Louis Light Green Seal. AU.
Fr-2201H. Low two-digit serial number 55 on this nearly Gem light green seal on St. Louis. Only a light center bend prevents this otherwise Gem note from earning that higher grade. Great embossing...

1934 $500.00 Cleveland. CU.
Fr-2201D. A Cleveland district note that is temptingly close to a "choice" grade, with beautiful lime-green seals and vivid paper. A corner tip fold at the lower left prevents upgrade consideration....

Two Sequential 1934 $500.00 Boston. AU.
Fr-2201A. If not for a light center bend present on both notes, these original beauties would be CHCU. Nice seal embossing and great color.

1934 $500.00 St. Louis. AU.
Fr-2201. Pleasing light green seal type example on St. Louis. Crisp, original, and new looking. The minor circulation is apparent on the left margin on the back where there are a couple of folds.
149The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$1,100.00
1934 $500.00 Chicago. AU.
Fr-2201G. Enjoyable light green seal example with near ideal originality and three digit serial number. There is a minor margin tear just to the left of center on the bottom margin.

1934 $500.00 Atlanta. AU.

Error 1934 $500.00 Saint Louis. VF.
Fr-2201H. You will seldom encounter a $500 error note, and with two gutter folds, this note is certainly an error. Making it even more enticing is the fact that it is a Light Green Seal error. It...

1934 $500.00 St. Louis. CGA CHCU-63.
