2016 Natick And Gilbert Experimental Note Census Wanted

Steve,
I printed out some stats yesterday and found your PMG note pictured in the Gilbert pamphlet on E-Sylum..

Can I assume the Gilbert Article listed on "The E-Sylum: Volume 15, Number 22, May 27,2012, Article 21" is your article..

If so, I have referenced the production sheet numbers here and elsewhere (including questions to the BEP)..

I was a member of SPMC for a good number of years, along with a subscription of Bank Note Reporter that mirrored SPMC..

I used to collect all forms of U.S. Paper from the 1970's to around 1998 (Colonial to Broken Bank to current small size currency)..

I joined ebay in 1997, and found my real love of Numismatics, Errors.. I liquidated everything in one lot, let my membership expire and jumped into the world of errors..

I started with USA only, then expanded it to include Global Errors, both coins & currency..

I have been thinking of joining SPMC again & revisiting Bank Note Reporter as I reached a dead end on population reports for confirmed errors..

I've got a ton of 1963 $1 Mules. I probably have more 1963 $1 mules than non-mules.

Steve,

I found this was posted above your post on the Gilbert Blog a few days after your post..

I had replied with a question requesting he post a photo and confirmation that it is a genuine Gilbert Note that was printed for the G-B Block..

He has yet to reply..

This would mean another 20,000 sheet Run would be added to my census under "Awaiting Confirmation"..



I'm about to answer GoldenChest's question on the first page on why I suggested he purchase some series 1963 $1 C-* and 1963A G-G & G-* Blocks..

I assume he has not, and showing how much I believe my suggestion is a valid one, in the last 2 weeks I had strayed from purchasing only errors and had purchased 15 of these notes in CU condition..

I will also note that someone else must be on the wavelength as I am, as there is not one series 1963A G-G Block on ebay in raw AU - CU condition..

Did you find out what they're asking for one of the G-G Gilbert Notes that were in the Safe?

I'm still working on the details for posting my out-of-the-box theory on confirmation of both Gilbert & Natick Test Paper notes..

I've been trying to locate any Contract Information between the BEP & Natick Paper, because I believe that Natick delivered more then the 136,000 Sheets the BEP used in their August 1981 printings..

On the Aug. 1981 $10 Natick Production, it is confirmed that 256,000 Star Replacement Notes for the E-*(star) Block had been printed (with no other Natick data on the $10's)..

In the same month, the BEP prints 14 Runs of $10. FRN's for the E-B Block (Runs #37 to #50) - E46080001B to E64000000B 17,920,000 Ten Dollar Notes and ZERO Star Replacements are listed for Crane Paper..

Question that needs to be answered is'
Why would the BEP print 17 Runs on Crane Paper and the only replacement for FLAWED Notes are Natick Paper Test Notes..

I believe that one or more of the 14 Runs were on Natick Paper..

Three consecutive Natick's coming up at Heritage.

edited to add; Looks like all 3 are new to the census.

Jim is aware, and also mentioned he believes the same cosigner has a pack of these notes.

Prices may plummet.

I added 5 new Natick error serials 9 days ago and sent GoldenChest the following message about 5 days ago;




These 5 notes come from a different Bank Pack then the 3 errors at Heritage last month..

To date, 288 of the 304 Natick overprint errors have entered circulation with one sheet still awaiting confirmation (it is possible that 100 Note bank pack was recovered, time will tell)..

The 40 Errors are from the 18 Sheets, and verifies 288 errors from the 15 Bank Packs had entered circulation..

My old Census is available for any member wanting to take it over..
