U.S. Currency Sales Announced

World Banknote Auctions has announced its upcoming U.S. Currency Sale 1, featuring a wide range of rare and collectible bank notes from the United States. The auction will take place on February 24 on the firm’s website and will feature notes from the colonial era to modern times, including scarce large-size notes, fractional currency, and error notes.

Highlights of the sale include a rare 1934 $5,000 Federal Reserve Note from the Dallas District graded PMG Choice Uncirculated 64, a unique 12-piece 1999 $10 district set with Solid Serial Number 9 and a PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ 1869 $5 Legal Tender Note. These notes are highly sought after by collectors and investors and are expected to fetch significant prices at auction.

In addition to the rare notes, the sale will also feature a selection of more affordable notes for the budget-conscious collector. These notes are a great opportunity for novice collectors to start building their collection or for experienced collectors to add to their existing collection. The auction will be held online and will be open for bidding to the public.

World Banknote Auctions has also listed part 1 of the Navy Commander Collection of U.S. National and Gold Banknotes, which will take place on March 10. This collection features a wide variety of National and Gold bank notes from the late 19th and early 20th century. The focus is on California banks, but the sale also includes select key notes from around the country. Highlights include a $10 Gold note from the First National Bank of Oakland, Calif. graded Fine 12 by PMG, an 1882 $50 Date Back on the Citizens National Bank of Los Angeles, Calif. graded Very Fine 25 by PMG and only the third mismatched prefix on a National bank note, a 1929 Type 1 $10 on the First National Bank of Boston, Mass., graded Very Fine 25 by PMG. This collection is a treasure trove of banknote history that will appeal to collectors and investors alike.

Both auctions will be held online and both catalogs have been posted for immediate viewing and bidding. A printed catalog has been prepared for the Navy Commander Collection and is available from the company by request.
