Description
Gorgeous Hawaii Territory $5 Brown Back
Honolulu, HI - $5 1882 Brown Back Fr. 477 The First NB of Hawaii at Honolulu Ch. # (P)5550We sold this spectacular $5 Territorial Brown Back in our January, 2005 FUN sale, where it was described as "A beautiful Territorial Brown Back which has been off the market for two decades. It's one of the very nicest Hawaii Territory $5 Brown Backs known, and is a note any collector could fall in love with in an instant. The colors, margins and signatures are all far above average for any note from here, and few if any Hawaii Territorials offered in recent years could even approach this piece in desirability and eye appeal. We've seen so few comparable notes in recent years that any estimate here is but a guess, but a conservative figure for this Extremely Fine-About Uncirculated Brown Back is $10,000-15,000." At that sale it realized $11,615. In the nearly five years that have passed since that sale, the only comparable Hawaii Territory $5 Brown Back to appear at auction was an example graded Extremely Fine, which realized $17,250 in March of 2008. We see no reason whatever that this superior piece will not bring that or more tonight.
