Brian34Jersey Valued Member United States 234 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 12:05 pm Bought this note from a local coin shop. Bought it cheap becuase the guy had piles of different notes. This one was so obscure he didn't know what it was worth. I saw one on heritage go for $500 in worse condition. That was the only listing I could find. One negative point is at one point this thing was pasted in a album so there is residue on the backside from the pasting. What do you guys think? https://flic.kr/p/PoctPd Report this Post to the Staff

SteveInTampa Pillar of the Community United States 4637 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 12:53 pm Nice looking note Brian. I love any note with a train. It has bold signatures and really nice vignettes. A much rarer example than the Memphis $10 with the Eagle vignette. The other $5 sold last year for $399.50 and was from the Eric P. Newman collection, so it had some added provenance. Probably a sub $500 note because of the glue residue. Report this Post to the Staff
Connor Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 1:40 pm That is a nice looking note. I can't really help with value as I mainly collect North Carolina obsolete notes. I just sent a few NC "train" notes off to PMG to be graded. Report this Post to the Staff
