Description: Fr. 40 1923 $1 Legal Tender Red Seal Star NoteFine to Very Fine (F-VF) – RARE! This listing features a Fr. 40 1923 $1 Legal Tender Red Seal Star Note, a highly coveted issue among collectors due to its rarity and unique red Treasury seal. Star notes, printed as replacements, were produced in much smaller quantities than regular issues, making them highly sought after. •Catalog Number: FR. 40•Denomination: $1 Legal Tender•Year: 1923•Significance: Red Seal Star Notes are much rarer than their blue seal counterparts, representing a special issue of Legal Tender Notes. These are prized for both their historical value and aesthetic appeal.•Condition: Estimated Fine to Very Fine (F-VF) – The note shows signs of circulation, with some edge wear but no visible pinholes or major damage. Despite the circulation, key details remain intact and visible. Rarity and Census Information According to Track & Price, only 222 examples of this star note have been recorded in the census, with only 132 graded higher than Very Fine (VF-25). Given the limited number in existence, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a Legal Tender Star Note, which remains hard to find in any condition. Historical Importance The 1923 $1 Red Seal Star Notes were issued as part of the U.S. government’s Legal Tender Series, distinguished by their bold red seal and serial numbers. These large-size notes were the last of their kind before the transition to smaller notes in 1928. Their iconic design, featuring George Washington on the obverse, adds to their appeal for collectors and investors alike. With fewer than 222 known examples, this star note is a key piece for any serious U.S. currency collection and an excellent opportunity for those seeking rare and significant notes from American currency history.

Journey into Collecting and Investing in the 1923 Blue and Red Seal $1 Large U.S. Type Star Notes Investor Interest and Rarity Investors are increasingly drawn to 1923 Large Size U.S. Star Notes due to their scarcity and historical significance. These notes serve as both a store of value and an opportunity for capital appreciation, particularly for high-grade examples. Over the last decade, both blue seal silver certificates and red seal legal tender notes have seen a steady increase in demand, especially in grades of Very Fine (VF) or higher. Long-Term Investment Potential Star notes were printed in smaller quantities, making them rarer than standard issues. For investors, scarcity is key to the long-term growth of these notes. Historical trends show that prices for well-preserved star notes have appreciated at rates comparable to rare coins and precious metals, giving investors tangible assets with high appreciation potential. As the supply of these century-old notes diminishes, the demand for certified and graded star notes continues to rise. Portfolio Diversification Investors in rare U.S. currency understand the importance of diversification, and large-size star notes provide an excellent hedge against market volatility. With their historical importance, aesthetic appeal, and limited supply, these notes present a unique opportunity for collectors and investors alike to balance a traditional portfolio with a long-term investment in American monetary history. As more investors recognize the value of tangible assets, the demand for star notes, particularly from the 1923 series, is expected to grow, making them a compelling addition for both collectors and financial strategists. Conclusion For those looking to combine historical significance with solid investment potential, the 1923 blue and red seal $1 star notes offer a unique opportunity. Their rarity, strong historical ties to the U.S. monetary system, and limited availability make them attractive options for portfolio diversification and long-term asset appreciation. As demand for rare U.S. currency continues to rise, investors in star notes could see significant returns, particularly with graded examples that maintain high collector interest.

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
