- Taunton, MA - Taunton Bank $5 1862 MA-1220 G78a. PCGS Fine 12. Taunton was once known as the "Silver City," and this fully issued National Bank Note Company $5 note boasts a custom vignette showing the Reed and Barton Manufacturing Co. at that time. Taunton appears to have been a very dynamic city in the 1860s. The wide vignette at top shows boats sailing on the river and a train chugging along. Between are piles of coal. The city view features a large train depot, factories and a steeple. At top right is a counter composed of the numeral "5" over a spiraling octet of disks with the number "5" upon them. Interesting end panels show a central "5" over a linear group of disks with the number "5"; the top four are right-side-up and the bottom four are upside-down. In green are: a frame all around, a micro-lettered guilloche at bottom center, and cartouches composed of numeric/textual disks at the sides. The note has a typical "New England" trim and small path of foxing on the cashier's signature at the lower left. We have only seen a few issued notes from the series and this is the finest.

- Springfield, MA - Pynchon Bank $1 June 1, 1860 MA-1185 G2b SENC. PCGS Fine 12. This is one of only two issued Pynchon Bank notes we have seen. Danforth, Wright & Co. engraved the primary plate, and proofs are known of that style. This has an added "ABC" monogram and was used for this issued note with a color protector. A train spewing black smoke travels west at the top; the edge of the vignette just slightly encroaches on a large, red "1" protector. Numeric counters are at lower left and upper right corners. At lower right, in an oval, is a portrait of a blacksmith with a sledgehammer on his shoulder. There is some faint tone to the paper, but uniformly, and the note is solid and attractive. An important Springfield issued note. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $940.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18409. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- Springfield, MA - Chicopee Bank $10 MA-1175 G60 SENC. Proof. PCGS About New 53 Apparent. This is an attractive Terry Pelton & Co. India paper proof that is an unpublished denomination in both major references, Haxby and Whitman. Like much of this imprint's work, the vignette at top center was custom-engraved for the title. Between the location name and bank title is a lively town green vignette. Strolling people, leafy trees, and a spouting fountain enliven the scene. Two small vignettes are flanking: a farmer with plow horses at left and the ever-popular beehive motif at right. In the lower right corner, a farm hand carries a sheaf of wheat. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled" as made and with "Stains; Small Edge Tears." It has considerable eye appeal and perhaps is a unique note. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $646.25. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18408. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- Springfield, MA - Agawam Bank $3 18__ MA-1165 G6 SENC. Proof. PCGS Extremely Fine 45. Springfield also had several banks, and this is a rare title for genuine notes and proofs.

The one at the right gestures while her companion turns her head, in a most unnatural manner, to look. A portrait of a young boy is featured in an oval frame in the lower right corner. Numerical counters are at the lower left and upper right. With very light handling folds. The top right margin is trimmed into the printing. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled" as made. The only $3 note from bank, proof or issued, we have seen. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $1645.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18407.

- Salem, MA - Exchange Bank $10 May 2, 1859 MA-1105 G46 SENC. PCGS Very Fine 20 Apparent. A second denomination from this dynamically vignetted series printed from plates with dual imprints of the New England Bank Note Company and Patent Stereotype Steel Plate and an "ABC" monogram at the bottom. Like the other denominations in this series, Athena is in the harbor seated upon a throne. Ships sail in and out of the harbor to her left and right. George Washington is portrayed in a circular frame in the center of the left end panel. A Roman numeral counter is above and textual counter below. In the right end panel, TEN is above and "10" below, with a portrait of Christopher Columbus in between. The note appears to have been redeemed in 1876 and has the National Exchange Bank circular stamp on the back. The face is penned twice "Cancelled/Mar 6/76" matching the date of the back stamp. Noted as "Pen Cancelled" and with "Paper Pulls on Back; Minor Rust Stains." The mentioned flaws are trivial compared to the impact of this bold type. We have not seen this note except for the plated Peabody Essex Museum example. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $2232.50. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18406.

- Salem, MA - Exchange Bank $2 Aug. 11, 1858 MA-1105 G16 SENC. PCGS Very Fine 35 Apparent. Genuine notes from Salem's Exchange Bank are exceedingly rare and are all designated SENC in Haxby. This is another very impressively designed and unusual rarity from Massachusetts. The face of the note has the dual imprints of the New England Bank Note Company and Patent Stereotype Steel Plate. The note's dynamic design is complex and worthy of close study. Seated in the harbor, on a throne, is facing Athena. The shoreline is to her left and right, and the open ocean behind. At the left is standing Athena as America, and at the right is a standing female representing Navigation and Plenty. The corners have various counters, and flanking the center are partially outlined, but large, "2" protectors. The layout and protectors would have made it impossible to raise the denomination. A red protector TWO is at the bottom. A lightly penned notation shows that the note was "cancelled." It is interesting that a four-note lower denomination set (including a similar $2 note) exists of this distinctive and exceedingly rare series. All are illustrated in the Whitman Encyclopedia: Volume 4 with images contributed by the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem. This is museum caliber as well, and the $3 note from this series sold in the Newman Part VI sale in April 2015 for $3,290 (PCGS Very Fine 20). Noted as "Pen Cancelled" and with "Mounting Remnants on Back." This is a very crisp, vibrant note and superior in many respects to the $3 note from the Newman VI sale. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $3055.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18405. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
