1934-A, $5 World War II Emergency Note. Hawaii Star Note. . Fr-2302*. . KL-1961*. PMG Choice Fine 15. This very rare star note is one of only a handful of survivors known. It is not priced above VF in the Schwartz & Lindquist reference, and even seasoned collectors are likely to have never seen one. It is one of the great small size star note rarities; more remarkable, this note was the best that the Hawaii collector could obtain after many years of searching. Spirited bidding will likely ensue before the hammer falls on this rarity. Don't be surprised if our pre-sale estimate proves to be low.
Estimated Value $5,000 - 7,000.
From the 9/09 Hawaii Collection.
