Lot #138 - 1902 $10 Blue Seal - Unionville, MO Charter #13268 - PMG VF-25/corner missing/previously mounted
US Currency-National Bank Notes
Ex: Eric P. Newman collection. Last seen in a PCGS holder with a grade of "VF20 apparent", additional notations on the PMG insert agree as well: "corner missing, previously mounted". That does not alter the rarity of this 1902 plain-back for which only four examples are reported. Unionville, a far suburb of St. Louis, was the last Missouri bank to issue large National notes, partially explaining the rarity and appeal of this very low serial number (34) ten. During the upgrade from PCGS to PMG, the important Newman pedigree was lost, and the cataloger hopes the next owner will be astute enough to have PMG restore it.

Lot #842 - 1794 Head of 1794 S-24 Apple Cheeks XF
Hammer: $4,800
Large Cents-Liberty Cap
Doctor Drew Collection. Sheldon-24 "apple cheek", a common die-marriage that always shows light die rust from the bottom of the neck into the date area. Cataloger's grade: [XF-40] takes into account the late die state V, for which a radial die crack crosses over "L" in LIBERTY. Marvelous Hershey-brown adorns the entire surface, yielding to only the slightest ashy texture on the high points, especially the highly rounded cheek evoked by the "apple cheek" nickname. Shallow detail at ENT on the reverse is characteristic of the die state and not due to circulation. Not known to many collectors is that Sheldon's father created the name for S-24.
