Consolidated Fund of Texas   


        Cataloging Consolidated Fund notes can be confusing!  You actually need both Criswell & Shull references to figure out what you have and even then you might not be able to figure out which variety you actually have.  If you have questions about the cataloging of any CF note don't hesitate to write me for my opinion.  If I don't have an answer for you, I will contact Mike Stair for his opinion.  I consider Mike to be the foremost authority on these Consolidated Fund notes.  
        I will do my best to explain what variety I'm offering and why I've assigned a number that might not be found in Criswell or Shull.  There are listings that don't exist in Criswell as well as Shull and others that have yet to be assigned a number by Shull.

A2  $2  #        none in stock at this time    
A2  $2  #4415  There are old stamp hinges closing some, but not all of the cut cancellations on the back.  If you think you might submit this note to a 3rd party grading service sometime in the future, let me know and I'll remove those stamp hinges.  They list cancel closing hinges as "repairs" and it isn't hard to remove them at all.  This note has a Tight Cut, yet the borders are well defined.  Other than that, The Color and Contrast are pretty decent overall all.  Thin paper variety, Typical mid-grade CC, F/VF  $   obv   rev        SOLD                    
A2  $2  #329  PMG This note is a little soft along the edges, but has decent Color, Contrast & Balance overall.  This is the Thick paper variety and it is graded Choice FINE15 by PMG.  $  obv  rev     SOLD             

  A3    $3    

A3  $3  #                       
A3  $3  #5092  I'm tempted to cut this note out of this PMG holder and wash & press it.  It's just a "Dirty" thick paper variety.  This note grades Fine Plus in my opinion.  It has Nice Color, Contrast & Balance.  PMG grades it as Very Good 10  and it has a Fricke "PLUS" sticker so even he thinks it is better than PMG graded it.  $750.00   obv   obv                                                            
A3  $3  #2407  This note has Great Color & Contrast and Wonderful Paper; but, the Balance is a little off.  The slant at the left end isn't the fault of anyone except the printer who who didn't allow the paper to dry evenly.  It didn't have enough pressure at top left and drew inward.  This is a thick paper variety which PMG grades Very Fine 20.  Premium Quality!  $1,125.00   obv   obv

A8  $100  #1055  Decent Color Contrast & Balance for the Obverse.  The reverse Color is a bit faded.  For some reason, the paper and ink used for the $100's and $500's didn't hold the orange ink on the reverse as well as it did for the other denomination from what I have witnessed over the years.  This is a pretty nice Average Plus example with no issues.  PMG Fine 15   $  SOLD 12/14   obv   rev
