Lot #16 - $500 Obsolete - 1839-41 Republic of Texas PMG VF-35/cancelled/severed and reattached
US Currency-Obsolete Currency
A classic numismatic rarity, the $500 is the key note from the Republic of Texas series and the highest denomination issued by the fledgling nation. Fortunately, the lengthy history of this particular note is fairly traceable. “Williams” was paid at the Republic of Texas embassy in New Orleans, the only location that canceled in this manner. The written Cancelled manuscript was applied across the face and then the person who was Paid, Williams, was written on the back in two places as well as the serial number twice, 707. The note was then cut in half and the two pieces were sent back to Texas separately. Half was sent by Sailing Ship either to Galveston (typically) or Velasco and then from there by wagon or horseback. The other half was sent across the Mississippi River and then transported by wagon or another form of overland delivery. When the two parts reached Austin, Texas they were accounted for and put back together. The “Funded and Cancelled” rubber stamp was applied at the right and the Cut-Out Cancelation was applied as well, which is seen at left. In this case, the cuts were complete and the triangle fell out. $500's are not typically cancelled in this manner; most notes thus cancelled have been the Houston Government notes. The $500's bear the CoC and Funded stamp(s) but are seldom seen severed and reattached. This is an exceptional presentation piece with the additional history of passing through New Orleans. Overall, the appearance is much nicer than the assigned grade suggests and the full frame makes this note “choice,” along with the added cachet of a distinguished Texas pedigree from a notable Texas historian.

Hammer: $21,750
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
Sharply struck devices team together with nearly flaw free fields throughout this seven-piece group lot of 1900 $20 gold Liberty Double Eagles that have all been certified by PCGS as MS-64. Each of these nearly Gem examples offer more than adequate luster levels for the assigned grade. Additionally, four of the seven issues boast a very attractive pumpkin orange appeal with the remaining three offering a much more traditional yellow-gold backdrop (ck).

Hammer: $4,850
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
Still and unbothered this coin sat at the bottom of the ocean for one-hundred fifty years, perhaps deserved after the ferocity of the hurricane that so unfortunately sent the S.S. Central America—the “Ship of Gold”—and many crew mates to their watery grave in September of 1857. Box, certificate, gold dust, and special PCGS holder.
