A Journey into Large Size U.S. Legal Tender Investing and Collecting Exploring the Market Trends and Auction Price Appreciation Investing and collecting large size U.S. Legal Tender Notes offers a unique opportunity to connect with a rich part of American monetary history while also tapping into a market that has shown strong and steady appreciation in recent years. Legal Tender Notes, also known as United States Notes, were first issued during the Civil War and played a pivotal role in the country’s financial system for over a century. Their distinct red seals, intricate designs, and historical significance make them highly collectible, and the recent trend data suggests that certain issues are seeing impressive auction price appreciation, signaling a growing demand among collectors and investors. Understanding Large Size U.S. Legal Tender Notes Large size Legal Tender Notes are a type of U.S. paper currency issued primarily between 1862 and 1929. They were backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government but were not redeemable for gold or silver, distinguishing them from other forms of currency like gold and silver certificates. The vibrant red seal and serial numbers make them visually striking, and their historical significance as a funding mechanism for the Union during the Civil War adds to their collectible appeal. The most famous large size Legal Tender Notes include the iconic “Rainbow” series from 1869, the Woodchopper design on the $5 note from the 1907 series, and the widely recognized $500 and $1,000 notes that were rarely seen in circulation but hold immense value today. Recent Auction Price Appreciation: A Growing Trend In recent years, large size Legal Tender Notes have seen a significant increase in value, driven by growing interest in U.S. numismatics and the rarity of surviving notes in high grades. The combination of historical relevance, rarity, and aesthetic appeal has made these notes increasingly desirable at major auctions. For example: •Fr. 64 1869 $5 Legal Tender “Rainbow Note” has shown strong auction price appreciation, with examples in Very Fine (VF) condition seeing sales jump from around $2,000 five years ago to well over $3,500 at recent auctions.•Fr. 107 1880 $100 Legal Tender notes, especially those in higher grades, have surged in value, with PMG 64 or higher examples regularly fetching more than $40,000, an impressive increase from their historical average of around $25,000 just a few years ago.•Fr. 91 1907 $5 “Woodchopper” notes, which are among the more iconic and widely collected Legal Tender designs, have seen steady appreciation, with high-grade notes in Choice Uncirculated (PMG 63 or higher) conditions now commanding over $10,000, up from $6,000 just a few years ago. Why Collect and Invest in Large Size Legal Tender Notes? There are several key reasons why collectors and investors are drawn to large size U.S. Legal Tender Notes: 1.Historical Significance: These notes represent critical moments in U.S. history, including the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the financial evolution of the country. Holding a Legal Tender Note allows collectors to own a tangible piece of American heritage.2.Artistry and Design: The intricate engravings, vivid red seals, and unique serial numbers make these notes highly attractive to collectors. The iconic imagery featured on these notes, from portraits of U.S. presidents to allegorical figures representing liberty and justice, further enhances their visual appeal.3.Rarity and Scarcity: Large size Legal Tender Notes were issued over a century ago, and many have been lost, destroyed, or heavily circulated, making well-preserved examples increasingly rare. High-grade notes, particularly those graded by reputable third-party services like PMG or PCGS, are scarce and command significant premiums.4.Strong Market Trends: The market for large size Legal Tender Notes has been trending upward, with collectors and investors recognizing their value as rare historical artifacts. Auction prices for high-grade examples continue to rise, with many notes far exceeding their pre-sale estimates. This appreciation suggests that Legal Tender Notes are not just collectibles, but also a strong investment opportunity. Popular Issues with Strong Auction Price Appreciation Certain Legal Tender Note issues have consistently shown strong price appreciation at auctions, making them attractive targets for both collectors and investors: •Fr. 64 1869 $5 Rainbow Note: Known for its vibrant colors and intricate designs, this note is a favorite among collectors. With strong appreciation in higher grades, especially PMG 40 or higher, these notes have been achieving record prices at auctions.•Fr. 91 1907 $5 “Woodchopper” Note: This note, featuring a frontiersman chopping wood, is an iconic design. Its recent price increases at auctions, particularly for Choice Uncirculated examples, make it a hot item for investors.•Fr. 1166 1862 $10 Legal Tender Note: The earliest Legal Tender Notes issued during the Civil War have seen consistent appreciation. High-grade examples from the first year of issue, such as this $10 note, are achieving strong results, particularly in PMG 63 and above.•Fr. 107 1880 $100 Legal Tender Note: Higher-denomination Legal Tender Notes like this one are incredibly rare and have seen significant price jumps in recent years. These high-grade notes are highly desirable and are among the top performers at auctions.•Fr. 114 1901 $10 Bison Legal Tender Note: One of the most iconic designs in U.S. currency, the 1901 $10 Bison features a large, striking image of a bison flanked by portraits of Lewis and Clark. This note, particularly in Very Fine or higher grades, has consistently appreciated in value, with high-grade examples fetching more than $20,000 at auction. Its combination of historical significance and artistic appeal makes it one of the most coveted Legal Tender Notes. Investment Potential and Portfolio Diversification For investors, large size Legal Tender Notes offer a compelling way to diversify a portfolio. As the value of paper money continues to appreciate, particularly in higher grades, these notes are becoming more attractive as an investment asset. With limited surviving examples and growing demand from both domestic and international collectors, Legal Tender Notes are poised for continued growth in value. Additionally, unlike more modern collectibles, Legal Tender Notes have intrinsic historical value that adds to their long-term appeal. Investing in rare currency, particularly notes that have shown strong auction performance, allows investors to hold an asset with both monetary value and cultural significance. Conclusion: A Time-Tested Collectible and Investment Opportunity Collecting and investing in large size U.S. Legal Tender Notes offers a unique blend of history, artistry, and financial potential. With auction prices for popular issues consistently rising, these notes represent a solid investment for those seeking rare and historically significant assets. Whether you are a seasoned collector looking to expand your collection or an investor searching for alternative investments with long-term growth potential, large size Legal Tender Notes provide an opportunity to own a piece of American history that continues to appreciate in value.

Bloc Galleries – where discovery meets passion, and your satisfaction is our mission. DID YOU SEE CATS LAST NIGHT? In the quiet corners of Bloc Galleries, where history whispers from each collectible, two enigmatic felines hold court. Gertrude, with her elegant white coat, and Pete, 'The Man Cat', in his tuxedo attire, materialize each evening as the sun dips below the horizon. No one knows where they hail from, maybe an alternative universe but their vigilant eyes never miss a detail. At precisely 3:33 AM, under the soft glow of the moon, an extraordinary event unfolds. For a fleeting 15 minutes, they speak. Yes, speak! With articulate English accents, they offer a running commentary on the day's work, sparing no one from their sharp, albeit humorous, observations on our numismatic endeavors. "Another misaligned watermark?" Gertrude would quip, her tail flicking with amusement. Pete, ever the diplomat, might chime in, "Splendid effort on the cataloging, though, truly!" Their critiques, always laced with wit, leave us in chuckles and chagrins alike. But as the clock ticks towards 4:00 AM, their words fade into the ether, and the memory of their eloquence evaporates like mist. By 5:00 AM, they are but silent sentinels once again, and with the first light of dawn, they vanish, leaving behind just a hint of their presence in photos they've graced. Legend now has it that Gertrude and Pete are the guardians of good fortune at Bloc Galleries. They watch over the collections, ensuring each piece carries with it a sprinkle of their mystical charm. For those who happen upon their image nestled within the listings, take it as a sign: the cats approve, and so may luck favor your bids. They admire the pretty pictures and revel in the grand tales spun by the currencies of old, and in their peculiar way, they extend their good will to all our customers, whispering of fortunes yet to come. If you win this auction and send us a message about the felines will send a special gift from Pete. He always has a great eye
