Obsolete Bank Notes

6 posts in this topic

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum, this is my 1st post. I joined a membership with PMG a few months ago primarily so that I could send off a couple notes to be graded. 1 of my notes is just fine ($500 grover cleveland) & I have all the info I need (Friedberg #).

 

The other 4 notes, however, I have discovered to be a little more difficult. I'm hoping that someone can help me out with the info I need, or let me know if I'm stressing over nothing.

 

The other 4 notes, are obsolete bank notes. I will attach pix. So I need some sort of "catalog number" or serial number for the grading form. From what I've gathered, obsolete bank notes are tracked with the "haxby numbering" system....but I can't seem to find anything online about it. Or how i would come up with the numbers for my notes. The only thing I can find, is a book for like $300-$400 to purchase online. But that's obviously quite a lot of $$$ that hopefully I can avoid if possible. So I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what the numbers would be for my notes, or if I would be able to just send the notes for grading, without a catalog number. Any help is much appreciated,

The one thing about obsoletes is that many have pretty neat designs and they are not very expensive. However, one may want to concentrate on a specific area (geographic, theme or otherwise) otherwise it would be pretty much impossible to put together a cohesive collection. Another area to consider might be confederate as most are affordable and they are an interesting part of our history.
