Lot #20 - $9 Obsolete - 1861 Virginia "holy grail" Monticello PMG VF-20/annotations/pinholes
Hammer: $3,000
US Currency-Obsolete Currency
The Monticello Bank was organized as a free bank in 1853 and—almost uniquely among the state's banks—survived the Civil War and became the Charlottesville National Bank in July, 1865.

This particular note is signed by Alexander Pope Abell as president, and B. C. Flannagan as cashier. Abell was a prominent Charlottesville businessman; his 1859 Greek Revival style mansion is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and still stands today.

The $9, long considered the “key” to the popular odd-denomination Monticello set, could’ve been paid out in change to someone making a $1 purchase with a $10 note. The Bowers reference lists two known examples of this type, and this figure mostly accords with public auction records. This example is arguably the nicest of the lot: even, light wear, full frame, and bold coloration all facilitate allure. Collector interest in $9 banknotes has remained resolute over the decades, with the Monticello $9 arguably being the pinnacle of the spectrum.
