NORTH CAROLINA DECEMBER 1771 UNCUT STRIP OF Three Gem New Uncut strips of this issue used to be seen with a fair amount of frequency among high end collectors. These strips of Rare Colonial currency are rapidly disappearing from the market. The 2s6d note at the top of this sheet has a needle hole just at the border of its design, and that hole contains a piece of the thread with which the original bundle had been sewn together. The L1andthe 10s notes are Superb, without a hint of a flaw.Sold 6/06

A strip of 5 uncut .05 (Five Cents) Reads as follows: Will pay to bearer, at the treasury, on or before Jan'y 1st, 1866 FIVE CENTS. The strip is strictly original with pen signature and the 5 notes number 26906 through 26910 by hand. Ultra Rare strip of paper cents. This note is listed in Criswell without price and with the notation "RARE." I have seen only one such note in Extremely Fine grade, a single, and I believe the sale price was well over $500.
