Lot 1262		1862, 5c Fractional Currency. First Issue, perforated edges, without monogram. P. Fr-1229. KL-3210.

Lot 1264		1862, 5c Fractional Currency. First Issue, straight edges, without monogram. PCG. Fr-1231. KL-3212.

Lot 1266		1864, 5c Fractional Currency. Third Issue, red reverse. PCGS Choice New 63. Fr-1236. KL-3254. This red reverse example is limited in grade by a tight left margin. Estimated Value $100 - 125 View details and enlarged photos	Realized $118
Lot 1267		1862, 10c Fractional Currency. First Issue, perforated edges, with ABCO monogram. Fr-1240. KL-3213.

Lot 1268		1862, 10c Fractional Currency. First Issue, perforated edges, without monogram. Fr-1241. KL-3214. Although slightly off center and with a couple of minor scuffs on the back which account for the grade, this perforated "no monogram" 10¢ example faces up nicely and would not look out of place in a set of higher grade notes. Estimated Value $125 - 150 View details and enlarged photos	Realized $176
Lot 1269		1862, 10c Fractional Currency. First Issue, straight edges, without monogram. PC. Fr-1243. KL-3216. This "no monogram" straight-edge variety is pleasing for the grade, with no flaws save for some trivial handling. Estimated Value $125 - 150 View details and enlarged photos	Realized $112

Lot 1273		1869, 15c Fractional Currency. Fourth Issue, large red seal, watermarked paper. Fr-1267. KL-3332.

Lot 1274		Third Issue 15c Face Specimen. Wide Margins. PCGS Choice New 63PPQ. Fr-1272SP. A pretty Grant-Sherman face specimen, with just a trivial bit of handling in the margins preventing a higher grade. Estimated Value $800 - 1,000 View details and enlarged photos	Realized $705
