- Boston, MA - Boston Bank $10 Feb. 1, 1841 MA-115 G90 SENC. PCGS Fine 12. The first issued note we have seen of this very rare type. It was finely printed from the engraved plate by New England Bank Note Co., Boston. The crouching allegorical female at left smiles as she unveils a large shield showing the Roman numeral "X." Numeric counters are at the bottom left corner and the center of the right end panel. A large "X" protector dominates the right side engraved with extremely fine lathe work. The note is a perfect Fine with sharply drawn signatures. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $705.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18375.

- Hagerstown, MD - Hagerstown Bank $1 April 3, 1862 MD-240 G26b, Shank 60.7.11. PCGS Very Fine 20. This is a very rare denomination and type from a bank mostly known for its plentiful remainders. The American Bank Note Company style is beautiful. At top center between two "1" counters is the sturdy looking bank building, seen on this series only, with customers coming and going. Between the "1" counters with agricultural images around the frames is a seal (titled, so perhaps the city seal at the time) At the right end, four charming cherubs hoist a large "1" on top of a pedestal with ONE on the front and side. An eagle on a rock is at the base. The condition is marvelous, the note bright and vibrant. A penned endorsement on the back indicates a local redemption. Ex: Eric P.

- Rockland, ME - Rockland Bank $50 Sept. 10, 1859 ME-505 G32, Wait 34. PCGS Fine 15 Apparent. This is an exceedingly rare high denomination from a bank that likely redeemed most of its circulation. Interestingly, the note is priced in Haxby, but not illustrated. It is not confirmed in the recent Maine section of the Whitman Encyclopedia. Well engraved, and with the Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson/New England Bank Note Co. imprint. A large wharf scene dominates the top center. Seated Commerce holds a caduceus as she rests her elbow on a large barrel. At the left end, Hebe holds a liberty cap on a pole. She furnishes a drink to a large eagle, which is perched on a cornucopia that is spilling coins. A red FIFTY protector is across under the title. Numeric counters are at the lower left and upper right. A clipper ship is depicted at lower right. Noted with some "Edge Tears," and there is a small patch of foxing at the left edge. The only example we have seen and perhaps a unique note. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $2232.50. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18373.

- Gardiner, ME - Franklin Bank $5 Jan. 23, 1833 ME-325 G16, Wait 2. PCGS Very Fine 30. This great Maine rarity reveals itself in the Newman Collection and is offered to the collecting public, we believe, for the first time. The note might seem uncomplicated at first, but it is not illustrated in Haxby despite its priced listing. Haxby supplies note data, but he must be referring to the Wait plate note, which he would have seen during his research; but the note was not specifically credited. All the other notes from the bank are SENC listings. The bank was not present in our Norman Pullen Collection sale of January 2003. Also, the $400 catalog value without a plate note in Volume 2 of the Whitman Encyclopedia seems very conservative. We consider this note unique. The note is in exemplary grade. It is a later Perkins' Patent Stereotype Steel Plate style with MAINE at the far left and dies at the far right. The full gray "CHECK PLATE" back has vertical segments of different lathe work strips. A riveting issued Perkins Plate note of the highest rarity. It exhibits the quintessential hallmark of so many Newman collection obsolete notes that share the common element of evidentiary numismatics in action. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $1527.50. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18372. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- Winnsboro, LA - Parish of Franklin $2 Oct'r. 2, 1862. PCGS Choice New 63. This very rare Parish of Franklin note should not get confused with the better-known Town of Franklin municipal notes. The Parish issued a few series of notes ranging from very rare to exceedingly rare. Like most Parish scrip, this appears to be locally made without an imprint. The note is printed on thick gray rag paper from a deeply inked plate. The simple folk art vignette displays a small plow at the center under a curved title and over the denomination and obligation-date-signature requirements; all are common to the series. At the left is a wide shaded cartouche with the denomination TWO DOLLARS, and at the right are two steamboats flanking TWO. A phenomenal grade note and a fitting conclusion to this diverse Louisiana Obsolete note section cataloged here. The $5 Parish of Franklin note from this series saw inspired bidding at the Newman Part VI Sale. That appealing note, graded PCGS Very Fine 25 Apparent, sold for $5,640. In addition to the selections cataloged and sold in the Newman Part VI sale, they all contribute empirical information about the rich State history and the great role Louisiana had in American commerce due to its agricultural production, markets and key location on the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $5640.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18370. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
