WHAT IS THE BOSTON COLLECTION?
The Boston Collection was put together by a gentleman in Boston, Massachusetts.
He is a retired physician who spent his career working in a hospital over the last 35 years. His only passion besides medicine was coins.
He thought of it as his “calm” after the long hours at the hospital. He attended coin shows once a month on Sunday’s for most of his adult life. He diligently collected this collection for over 30 years. Constantly improving his collection, insisting that it was only a premium collection by changing and swapping out coins to improve on them until it was truly a collection to behold.
The Collection is rounded out with:
Coins like you haven’t seen, the collection is loaded with high value Peace dollars and high value, rare date, high grade Morgan’s. The auction is a joy to behold.
This collection will also bring you rare notes that you do not see everyday. For example: A 1922 $100 Gold Certificate, a 1896 $1 Educational Note, a 1899 $5 chief Oncapapa, a super Rare 1923 Red seal.
It is also full of Uncirculated Key Date Morgans, Uncirculated Key Date Peace Dollars, 34-s, 21-p, etc. Literally, EVERY DATE of the Key Date Peace Dollars in fabulous condition. 84-s, 91-p, 96-o, 97-o, killer Morgan and Peace rarities like the 03-s micro s, and an 86-o top 100 vam 1a1 e on reverse in ms63+.

It was the darkest days of World War II, just after Pearl Harbor. Everybody in Hawaii was sitting on pins and needles. Were the Japanese preparing a massive invasion of the islands? If they did invade, they could use the millions of dollars in currency on the islands to buy war material. To thwart this, these $5 Federal Reserve Notes were sent to the islands. Each has a large HAWAII printed on the reverse. If the Japanese did invade, the currency would be demonetized. After the threat passed, most of these "Hawaii" Notes were destroyed. Today they're hard to find.
