Maureen Levine submitted these selections from the upcoming Heritage internet-only sale of items from the Eric P. Newman collection.
Thanks! Uncut sheets of obsolete paper money are rareand interesting. -Editor
The Newman Internet 1 sale contains a number of rare, choice condition and attractive sheets that are not often encountered outside of
significant collections. Many are quite undervalued. Obsolete uncut sheets place an issuer’s designs within a superior context that
showcases their artistic merits and provides invaluable opportunity for study.
Bank of the District of Columbia Sheet
The Bank of the District of Columbia sheet contains two denominations, $5 and $10, which are obtainable as individual notes and even as
proofs. However, few uncut sheets are known and the Newman example is choice and vibrant.

New Baltimore, Ohio Sheet
A New Baltimore, Ohio private store issuer created an interestingly styled sheet with eight denominations, including odd ones like 6 and 9
cents. The 50 cents note at the lower right has a “tombstone” or “mausoleum” design that is uncommon.

Corporation of Richmond Uncut Sheet
Thousands of different Virginia Obsolete currency notes are known, with most being from the tumultuous Civil War era. Corporation of
Richmond $1 notes with Spanish dollar reverses are not rare. However, the Newman uncut sheet of seven notes is not only rare but has two
perpendicular impressions at the left: another very unusual arrangement of denominations.
