Auction 269 | Lot 5232 » Fractional Currency » Third Issue
Fr. 1226 3¢ Third Issue Superb Gem New. This bright and lovely little Three Cent has boardwalk margins all the way around. When examples like this are seen its almost always the result of a sheet having been deliberately cut by a collector to produce a great note at the expense of its neighbors. Only four examples this wide can be cut out of a 25-note sheet. The surfaces are original and the colors are absolutely perfect. If any flaw is to be found with this beauty, it's that the back is just slightly off center to the top, which allows a bit of the next note to show at the bottom.

Auction 269 | Lot 5180 » Fractional Currency » First Issue
Fr. 1230 5¢ First Issue Superb Gem New. This beauty was clearly cut from a sheet for the sole purpose of preserving its margins. The bottom margin is part of the sheet selvage and nearly 1/4 of an inch wide. The other three margins are cut right to the point where they touch their neighboring note. A beautiful piece of Fractional.

Auction 269 | Lot 5181 » Fractional Currency » First Issue
Fr. 1230 5¢ First Issue Gem New. A neat error fractional with the face perfectly centered but the back so far off center that a fair part of the next note shows. This note is made even more desirable because of the exceptional grade.

Auction 269 | Lot 5183 » Fractional Currency » First Issue
Fr. 1230 5¢ First Issue About New. The face is centered normally; the back is off-center to such a large degree that fully 1/4 of the above note shows on the paper. Minor shifts of this type are common on Fractional Currency, but when the shift is this pronounced the note fully qualifies as an Error.

Auction 269 | Lot 5215 » Fractional Currency » Second Issue
Fr. 1233 5¢ Second Issue Choice New. This note received its face printing with its gutter fold closed, but the back printing with it open, causing a white streak through the back design. A minor error to be sure, but interesting and unusual on a Fractional note.
