PCGS Very Fine 20.  The September 2, 1861-dated \"Eagle and Shield\" T27 $10 note is another illustrious Confederate type note, forming an integral relationship with its sister \"Indian Princess\" T35 $5 note. Both of these rare types have been coveted by collectors for over a century. High-grade examples, uncancelled Very Good or better, are extremely difficult to find due to the weak paper used. The T27 $10 note is the rarest Confederate type, based on a recorded census of 118 examples at this time. That advanced census was created by Dr. Douglas B. Ball and Philip Chase, and is now continued by Pierre Fricke. Though many more T27 and T35 notes were printed than Montgomerys, they circulated heavily in day-to-day transactions, explaining their greater rarity. The high-denomination Montgomery series notes paid interest, and they were often redeemed at treasury offices and saved. The Newman Collection T27 and T35 pair form a dynamic duo that complement each other with their vivid eye appeal, paper originality and strong printing. Lithographed at Hoyer & Ludwig in Richmond, the notes were produced late in the year and the quality control for both types was deficient. The T27 notes were printed from two different plates. The first 7,160 \"Ab\" plate T27 notes were printed alongside the \"Ab\" T35 $5 Indian Princess notes on an eight-subject plate. An additional 1,460 T27 notes were issued and printed from a new plate using positions \"A9\" to \"A16,\" and this example was printed from that plate. The T27 plate numeral set is one of the greatest challenges in Confederate note collecting and has only been achieved a few times in over a century. The design is a handsome one with vignettes adapted from those used on pre-war Obsolete Currency. Liberty, seated at upper left, holds a capped pole and leans on a blank shield. She points out the obligation in a shield-shaped cartouche to the eagle beside her. A train with cargo and passengers is in the center at the far right. Three corners show identical \"10\" counters. Plate position A15, serial number 48. The Newman example is one of the finest seen by us and appears to have been printed from an early state of the second printing (serial numbers 1-110). The paper integrity is superb for this type, and the surfaces especially clean. The margins are well above average, and touch the frame printing here and there. Viewing from the blank back, there are some hard folds, but the surfaces are perfectly clean, and the note is in a completely natural state with only light circulation. To our knowledge, this memorable example is offered publicly for the first time and likely in the condition census of the T27 notes. This is another exceptional opportunity to obtain a Confederate note classic rarity in exemplary condition. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society\n\nRealized $25850.00.
