Howdy everyone... While in hot pursuit of my NY collection I have encountered the 4th addition of fractional currency printed by the Note Company of NY, NY. I found this 10 cent fractional and had to have it!! I am planning to build a set of the 4th series from XF to CH CU for my son AJ in addition to the coins and NY Currency Sets. These notes are really cool in every way! Hope you enjoy the pic...the FR# is 1259 RickieB
Those are really cool!.....I have looked at a few of them but keep holding out buying one till I find in in UNC! Speedy
Hey Speedster...how are ya??? This one is "Near Gem CU" and was at my limit for the small notes. They are cool indeed. Thanks for taking a look. RickieB
Very nice! She is very nice Rickie! Now that is a beaut. If you do not mind me asking, how much did you pay? Very nice. :thumb: Phoenix
RickieB, this was the first fractional I ever got... and ended up getting another (in better condition) since I liked it so much. I have a very fractional fractional collection Not every one of each series. But a couple that I really like are two of the first series in GEM with the perforations (like postage stamps).
Rick,you will be pleased to know that I did buy a 5c. Fractional a few years ago.I will be offloading it on eBay some time in the next few months. They are an interesting series.They can be regarded as the forerunner of the U.S. Postal Notes,which were issued in 1883 to 1894 & from 1945 to 1951.It was possible to send a Fractional note in the mail,as it was (& is) difficult to send coins loose in the mail. Aidan.
Hello Aidan, What condition is the 5 cent note? If you want to send me a PM with the info and pic I am willing to take a look.. Thanks for stopping by and posting! RickieB
