Lot 2002		Cincinnati, OH. Unknown Issuer. 18__ $5-3-2-1 Uncut Sheet of Remainders. PCGS Currency Choice About New 58PPQ. This enigmatic "Post Note" issue, with the notes made payable to "James Monroe or bearer," is from an unknown Cincinnati issuer from the 1830s. While the origin of these notes is shrouded in mystery, they are popular with collectors--especially since a small hoard of approximately 100 sheets, handled by this cataloger, turned up a decade ago to supply the market with nice examples. A corner fold in the selvage is the only grade-limiting factor on this sheet. Estimated Value $200 - 300. View details and enlarged photo	Unsold

Lot 2006		Jamaica, VT. West River Bank. July 1, 18__ $1-2-3-5 Uncut Sheet of Remainders. PCGS Currency Very Choice New 64.
