- Fr. 2307 $5 1934A North Africa Silver Certificate. PCGS Gem New 66PPQ. These notes were printed for use in the first major American land action of World War II, the 1942 invasion of North Africa, to pay the troops and local suppliers. The plan, similar to that put in place for the Hawaii issues, was to demonetize these distinctively printed notes if large quantities were to fall into enemy hands. Used in the invasions of Sicily and Italy as well, fewer of the unused notes were released domestically than were Hawaii examples, although packs of the $1 denomination are very occasionally encountered. This lovely $5 North Africa Silver Certificate is boldly embossed and displays a golden-yellow seal that is as bright as one will find for the type. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,116.25. Newman VI (Heritage Auctions, 4/2015), lot 19967. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- Fr. 2303 $10 1934A Hawaii Federal Reserve Note. PCGS Gem New 65PPQ. The Hawaii overprint notes were a wartime expedient which was hurriedly ordered after the Japanese bombing of our naval bases at Pearl Harbor in December of 1941. The Treasury Department was instructed to prepare distinctively printed notes for use in Hawaii should the Japanese invade and seize the islands, in which case the notes would be demonetized and no longer valid. Circulation of the notes was originally restricted to the Hawaiian Islands, with the notes printed in July of 1942 and introduced into circulation a month later. By order of the Territorial Governor, only Hawaii overprinted notes were allowed to circulate after August 15, 1942, with residents forbidden to possess regular pre-war United States currency after that date unless such possession was specifically authorized by the Governor. That prohibition was lifted on October 21, 1944. For some years thereafter, packs of the Hawaii overprinted notes were released to banks on the West Coast, with these packs the source of most of the uncirculated examples seen today. More than a few original packs of $1 notes have survived, and we have heard of at least a couple of packs of $5 and $10 notes, but the existence of an original pack of $20s has not yet, to our best knowledge, ever been confirmed. The note we offer here is a fully embossed and pack-fresh $10 example of this much-collected series. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,410.00. Newman VI (Heritage Auctions, 4/2015), lot 19966. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
