  • Lot 20382

    Descripción:
    Massachusetts - Parchment Copy for Nathaniel Paine's Monograph of the 1722 2 Pence Rectangle (type of MA-72). PCGS Choice About New 55. This is called a "square" when referenced in Felt's short mention, but it is actually a small rectangle. A facsimile on similar parchment-like paper, but different from the genuine type. Bright white paper and deep printing stand out. The orientation of all the emblems, lettering, bordering, and separation lines are similar to the original. It appears that when the Paine book was prepared, the author may have had an actual note from which to copy. However, the modern eye detects the differences of this facsimile. Handling and some minor toning are seen in the lower right corner. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20382, realized $840.

    Descripción:
    Massachusetts - Parchment Facsimile for Nathaniel Paine's Monograph of the 1722 1 Penny Round (type of Fr. MA-71). PCGS About New 53PPQ. A trimmed facsimile 1722 Penny round, but printed on a parchment-like paper. The paper is unlike that used for the original notes as it is bright white and does not curl along the edges due to the flat printing process used. The design is also different. The small index-hand insignia is on the wrong line; it should be on the second line pointing toward "One Penny" rather than with "1.d," which should comprise the entire first line (cf. Newman Part VI: lot 19481). There are other subtle differences with the genuine in the typography and bordering. Some minor bends and handling. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20381, realized $840.

    Descripción:
    Massachusetts � Facsimile Pair for Nathaniel Paine's Monograph of 1722 2 Pence Rectangle & 1 Penny Round (types of Fr. MA-72 & MA-71). PCGS Choice About New 55. Massachusetts paper currency is the subject of several important numismatic works from the 19th century. The Joseph B. Felt 1839 Massachusetts Currency is an important work, but interestingly mentions the 1722 Massachusetts "change bills" only fleetingly on page 78. However, Nathaniel Paine's Remarks on the Early Paper Currency of Massachusetts. Read before the American Antiquarian Society, April 25, 1866, discusses these curious and uniquely styled paper "coins" in detail. They are also illustrated, but in facsimile form, on page 28. The orientation of the plate is vertical (as it is in the Newman Library copy) with the 2 pence above the 1 penny note. This uncut strip, printed on paper, contains the facsimile note illustrations, but horizontally. Included is Eric's typewritten tag with the Paine bibliographic information. Only minor handling is seen on this interesting reference item. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20380, realized $720.

  • Lot 20379

    Descripción:
    Georgia 1777 No Resolution Date $17 Fr. GA-93. PCGS Extremely Fine 40 Apparent. The highest denomination of this series and, like some previous seal series, utilizing the iconic Rattlesnake Seal printed in blue. There are at least six varieties observed with this border (c). Andrew, Stone, and Girardeau signed at the left, and Ewen and O'Bryen penned their names perpendicularly. Although with the noted "Stains" and "Edge Tears," the type is rich black and red, the ornaments are bold, the seal is colorful and clear, and the embossing shows strong printing. It faces up as a nice looking type note and a scarcer, highest denomination. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20379, realized $900.

    Descripción:
    Colony of Delaware May 1, 1758 20 Shillings Fr. DE-60. PCGS Very Good 8 Apparent. Though not especially rare, the Franklin and Hall imprinted notes have long been collectors' favorites. This B. FRANKLIN and D. HALL printed note split apart and was sewn back together contemporarily. Grading notes: Severed and Sewn Together; Minor Edge Damage." The nature prints, but not the vignettes, were changed from the last issue, and the back shows the lion and assorted leaves designated for the denomination. A very interesting, contemporary "sewn" example illustrating the means necessary to extend circulation of these vital financial instruments. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
