PMG-graded Notes Highlight Heritage Auctions at Orlando FUN Show

A very rare 1882 $20 Gold Certificate expected to sell for six figures is among the PMG-certified highlights in the Heritage Auctions Currency Auction at the FUN Show this week. Bidding for the finest-known of this rare signature combination was already at $100,000 four days before the auction.

Meanwhile, a Zanzibar 1928 10 Rupees note, the centerpiece of a remarkable collection of nearly 200 notes, is among the PMG-graded rarities in the concurrent Heritage World Currency Auction.
