Massachusetts May 5, 1780 $8 Canceled Bundle of 35. This bundle came to us in a group of like items totaling over 200 notes in all. This bundle is one of the highlights of the group. It's made up of 35 hole-canceled $8 notes, all of which were canceled at the same time, which can clearly be seen from both the placement of the hole cancel and the beveling of the edges. The canceled group was then tied with a piece of 18th-century homespun thread, which still remains around them. The notes range in grade from Very Fine to About New and everything in between, but with the majority of the notes at the upper end. The individual value of the notes is in the $60 range, but this bundle, canceled together and tied as it is, is a prize item to a serious Colonial collector, and could easily far exceed the value of the individual pieces. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
