I'm not completely sure but I believe that they were consecutive.

 

May have to blow up a photo from the old display photos? smirk.gif

I'll see if I can find a list. There was an article in BNR a couple of years ago. They were not consecutive numbers tho. ALL have been processed. Pretty good job too, I saw one this past weekend.

I have some photos taken at the Binion in front of the display. I am still amazed that they are bringing a hundred grand or more apiece.

I saw a article from Jan, 2000 in the Las Vegas Sun about the sale of the collection in 1999. According to the article, there were 2 collections. The first was consecutive. It was first displayed in 1954 and cashed out in 1959. The second was assembeled and displayed in 1964 (before the Tres. Dept. removed $10,000 notes from circulation in 1969). Binion scoured the country for these, and they were apparently not consecutive. The collection was sold in 1999. Still haven't had any luck on serial #'s. I appreciate everyone's input.
