I picked up an interesting note today -- or more accurately it would be a proof, I think. It's intaglio printed on salmon colored paper with the...
The SCCS catalog numbers for these cards are SO155-158. You don't see many notes with an orange tint and I also like the ornate 1 and 5 background...
I was able to finally make a purchase of some cards I've been waiting a LONG time to pick up at a reasonable price. In the final two years that it...
I'll zip my lips for a while. ;) But you have to promise to post some pics if you win some of those big sheets!
That last one is gorgeous, especially the train vignette. This looks unissued; how expensive was it?
Duke, you'll find some details here: http://www.frn-ones.com/natick.html And Steve -- an error on Natick paper: that has to be pretty close to...
This is all great info -- many thanks everyone! I think I'll have to reevaluate my options, which have now expanded beyond just two. I'm going to...

So glad to hear about your positive progress, Rick! I hope you can continue to check in, just to share an occasional insight -- we miss your...

For currency (including some fractionals), Continental, National, American, and Columbian Bank Note were used. In 1878, the BEP was given...
Time for a bump. In the process of looking for an interesting card to post I came across a unique detail I'd never noticed before. In fact, I...
I read these kind of stories with mixed feelings. I seriously doubt those coins had been floating around in circulation only to land at a gas...

This just floors me -- star notes were supposed to replace error notes, right? How is it possible that a star error slipped by?
HEY -- I just noticed, these have the ROMPEX/BIA embossing in the lower left/right. These are the scarce cards, Darryl: F1987C & D. The union...
The paper is actually a dull yellow tint. And it's just paper, not card stock like most souvenir cards. As to the fine ruled engraving, you can...
Well, while we're on the topic of big sheets -- and since you got me to pull out my storage tube -- here's another fun one. This is FSO 1988A --...
