ATTENTION! Weekend Special Auction with Heidi & Shanny! The Key Date Coins Weekend Special!
What is The Key Date Coin Special?
Well, when you ask, we will always listen. We have been getting a lot of complaints from people that with our most recent updates to our weekly high end coin auction, there’s too many high value coins there and not enough things for people to bid on, get a bargain they can afford, and come away with the same feeling and thrill that they used to have at our auction. So, we listened, and we did a complete 180. We launched The Key Date Coin Special. An additional auction, 2 more nights a week, starting at 1:30pm with all the types of coins you wanted.

1891 $2 Treasury Note Grades xf Signatures Tillman/Morgan. Signatures of Tillman and Morgan. Treasury notes were only printed in 1890 and 1891. This note has a red seal and red serial numbers. It is interesting to note that James B McPherson is the only person to die in the Civil War who was later featured on United States paper money. McPherson was also the second highest ranking Union officer to die in the Civil War. Collecting paper money by portrait has always been an interesting but very challenging way to put together a currency collection. It is also difficult to try to complete a collection of 1891 treasury notes. The $1,000 note is unique and a $500 1891 treasury note has yet to be discovered. Any denomination over $20 is very scarce and rarely seen. There really isn’t an accepted nickname for 1891 $2 treasury notes. Collectors definitely refer to the portrait on the bill as a quick way to identify the item. McPherson was pictured on both the 1890 and 1891 treasury notes so you still have to get a little bit more specific
