- Huntsville, AL - Johnson House 5 Cents 1862 Rosene 140-4. PCGS Very Fine 25 Apparent. There are several series and types of notes from the Johnson House. The most intriguing, though, were engraved and printed by Hutton & Freligh, prs., Memphis and bear their imprint. Distinctive to this rare and historic style was a rustic medallion portrait of Jefferson Davis centrally placed under the curved title. At left, workmen, one lounging, ride atop bales on a horse-drawn wagon. At right, field hands are shown picking cotton. This example is well printed and pleasing from the face. Noted are "Mounting Remnants on Back; Taper Repaired Ink Erosion." We sold an unlisted 10 Cents note from this series in our 2010 FUN Signature sale for $3,450 graded raw "Very Fine." This note is equally desirable due to its rarity and eye appeal. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $1762.50. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18261.

- Fabius, AL - S. W. Norwood & Co. $1 188_ Rosene-UNL. Remainder. PCGS Very Fine 25 Apparent. Very interesting scrip with intriguing style from a town unlisted in Rosene. Well-balanced design elements are complemented by an ornamental border. At lower left, a group of baled goods; at upper right, a basket filled with of ears of corn, with corn in husks around it. Four vignettes appear on the back, radiating from the central oval with titles. Wild horses gallop at top left; at top right, a man points the way to the driver of a mule-drawn wagon loaded high with baled goods. Two vignettes in octagonal frames show abundant farm life: large cattle with a farmhouse behind, and a man feeding fat hogs. Printed in the 1880s, it has the appearance of a College currency note, but with the obligations of store scrip plainly evident on the face. Noted with only some "Minor Stains." This is the first we have seen, and it is unique to our knowledge. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $540.50. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18260.

- Cahaba, Alabama Ter. - Unknown Issuer (A.G. Mitchell?) 12 1/2 Cents 18__ Rosene-UNL. Remainder. PCGS Very Fine 25 Apparent. This is an exceedingly rare, early and historic Alabama currency note. Issued from Cahaba, the first capitol (now uninhabited, but a historic site); the merchant or authority that authorized and printed the note is unknown. It is the first paper money from Alabama and, as such, of the highest importance to state collectors. It was payable in "current notes or silver" which was a very unusual obligation. The engraved style of the note is typical of change bills printed by Murray, Draper, Fairman & Co., such as for the Bank of North of America. The denomination on this simple note appears at top center in an oval as "cents 12 1/2 cents" flanked by "12 ?"; at left, perpendicular TWELVE 1/2 CENTS on a black background; and right, perpendicular 12 1/2 CENTS. We know of only other note from the series, also 12 ? cents, which was cataloged and sold in the Ford Collection Part VIII sale in January 2005. That note was signed by "A.G. Mitchell" and dated, but the genuineness of the signature is difficult to prove. However, the note graded "Very Good" realized a remarkable $27,600, attesting to its overall rarity and immense importance as an unlisted Alabama Territory note. Noted with "Small Edge and Internal Splits" by PCGS. Estimating is difficult, but we emphasize its historic importance as the first Alabama paper money and the superior appearance compared to the Ford note. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $3525.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18258. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- United States Congress Federal Indent September 27, 1785 $6 Fr. UNL Anderson-168. PCGS Extremely Fine 40 Apparent.

This is on a broad piece of paper and very widely margined at the bottom. This faces up well at first glance, but is noted with "Restorations; Design Redrawn" to fill the note out completely at the left. Overall, this is quite attractive and appealing with its broad size.

- United States Congress Federal Indent September 27, 1785 $4 Fr. UNL Anderson-Smythe 167. PCGS Extremely Fine 45 Apparent. The Federal Indents issued from 1782 to 1787 represent an unusual series of Confederation period notes that were created due to the inability of the Continental Congress to redeem its paper money after the war. The new Federal government was still responsible for debt repayments on domestic and foreign bonds, which could only be met using anticipated states' taxations. The notes were created to be payable to the bearer for those taxes in convenient denominations and, in some cases, written in "ninetieths of a Dollar." The indents were issued in September 27, 1785 and October 11, 1787. These are rarely offered. The left side indent design pattern is shaved away on this example, and also noted are "Restorations; Design Redrawn" by PCGS. This is still pleasing to the eye despite the restoration work.
