Thanks for posting these, Ron -- and I also am glad to see someone new gain an interest in them! I'll add the companion card to Peace and Flag --...
I've seen the term "trinary" before but I'm not sure what it means. Three repeating numerals? How much value would this add to a note?
Here's another couple scans from an early convention book (skip back a few posts if you want some background on these). This one is from the 1930...
Ha! No -- I wish. I make do with souvenir cards and companion engravings. Just posted the note for comparison. It brought about $25K last time it...
As I was perusing a new addition to my library by Gene Hessler ("An Illustrated History of U.S. Loans") I discovered I'd misattributed the...
And that's exactly the reason it was designed -- to be eye catching and easy to market. This was never intended to circulate, it's just a colorful...
Well done! :thumb:
Thanks Chris! The scans can't do them justice -- they are amazing full-size. So did you find the eagle that appears on a federal banknote? Hint:...
SO glad to hear you're still with us, Rick!! Fight the good fight -- we are all sending good thoughts.
And another related thread, I'll tie-in here. No one ever commented on this one, so I'm not sure anyone saw it. Or maybe I was being snubbed for...
Fantastic notes, SM! Thank you so much for posting both the images and the background. I'm fairly certain I've seen a couple of the designs from...
Beautiful note! I see it's punch cancelled "Specimen". I know ABNCo included a Czech note reprint as a bonus in the 1988 Archive portfolio, but...
I've been having great luck lately acquiring convention booklets from the International Plate Printer's Union, which contain some incredible...
To be fair, these are really labels not postage stamps, so it would be unusual to find them used.
Chris, I was at a stamp show today and found a bunch of these. They really are nice! Unfortunately I'm missing three of the set. :( I'd forgotten...
Some of those notes probably won't surface again in auction for a couple decades -- I'm a huge fan of these ABNC Archive auctions. Can't usually...
I was out of the country for a bit, but finally got around to checking on the final bid was for this collection: $2,400. :( Not sure if that...
I would like to know myself, but I'm not hopeful. In his last post he said he said goodbye to everyone on CT and it sounded like he was putting...
So Duke (or anybody), let's say there's a collectible you'd like eBay to include as a category. And let's say they *didn't* have an issue with the...
If he has a high reserve then it may not sell at all. Online and mail bidders won't bid without knowing more details. I don't know if there are...
