Label Sets Galore.
<B>Label Sets Galore.</B></I><BR> This lot starts off with 73 bar code label sets for $1 FRNs from the 1988, 1999, 2001, 2003, and 2003A Series. These are followed by two $2 FRN 1995 F-B label sets and eight $2 FRN 2003 I-A label sets The late 1980s saw the BEP labels for paper money redesigned with bar codes added. Also, a "brick" of 4000 notes now consisted of four groupings of 1000 notes and each grouping was individually shrink-wrapped with a label attached that listed the first note in the grouping. So, presently a label set consists of the label and the first and last note for that particular grouping of 1000 notes. This first and/or last note can sometimes be a star note and at least a couple of those situations arise in this lot. It is common to see edge handling on the notes that make up label sets even though the notes have never entered circulation. This lot concludes with examples of <B>labels</B></I> <B>only</B></I> from the 1960s and 1970s. These labels are mounted on kraft paper or kraft paper mounted on a wood block. These include six $1 FRN labels, a $10 FRN label; a $50 FRN label, and two $100 FRN labels. The $100 labels are from the same "brick" due to the fact they are from a period where "bricks" had two labels. Labels of the higher denominations are seldom seen with or without notes. The total count in this lot is for the notes only and the early labels described individually. <I>Inspection is advised and there will be no returns on this lot for any reason.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
