Description
Original Bundle of 200 Crawford 50¢ Fractional Notes
Fr. 1381 50¢ Fifth Issue Original Bundle of 200 - 10 Full Packs
Choice About New.A $100 band holds ten full packs of 20 50¢ notes with each having a thin "Ten Dollar" band. We noticed only one "Ten Dollar" band that has split open, while the $100 band has been pinned together many times at bottom and has retained only a solitary bank pin. The $100 band in this lot has pencil writing on it like the other examples from this consignment. A few of the packs of 20 notes are held by the $100 band in an upside down position. Our examination did not find any needle holes in the notes.
This lot contains not only the original bundle of 200, but also the Benson's Sliced Old Home Fruit Cake of Athens, Georgia box that held the Fractional notes within the bank's vault. It was once sealed with a sticker that has a penned date of "1/20/ (19)78." There are also parts of another label that is damaged and reads in part. "(Co)mptroller Currency / Uni(ted States Tre)asury. This box once held one of the most interesting Fractional finds. (Total: 200 notes)
