If you won any Fractional's from the Robert Laub Collection, post 'em here

This was an AMAZING sale for the Fractional Specialists. Quite a bit of once in a decade (or more) offerings.

While most of it was way outside of my collecting specialty, and I think some of us who watched can agree some of the prices were very strong ... I happened to get an example.

I have wanted a nice Columbia Blue Right End for a while, and this one just seemed to fall in my lap ... at what I feel was a very reasonable price.

If you won anything from the sale, please share. Here's my newest addition to my small Fractional collection.

    _Nice win … Very Nice looking note 👍 _. I got nothing, I followed auction but didn’t bid 🙁

    Thank you both! Hopefully someone else will see this (eventually! :D) and post theirs.

    @Scooter007 I think I have seen over on the PMF (if you are one and the same). How about you @Serial_no_8 ? Do you post there too?

    "I have seen over on the PMF (if you are one and the same). How about you @Serial_no_8 ? Do you post there too?"

    -No, I have posted only on our CPMF in Canada & on the World/Canadian sections of CCF as "walktothewater" or "walk2dwater." Been collecting CDN currency for 44 years and World in the past 4 now (wow, I can't believe it has been that long!). I resisted world currency for 4 decades :p but then some notes just got the better of me. <3

    I have had very little exposure to wonderful world of US banknotes (especially like the older SC, GC & large "horse blankets") so here to learn. I have only acquired a handful of small US notes but would like to get more.

    @Serial_no_8 Oh very nice! Where in Canada do you hail from?

    It's been a number of years, but my Dad and I used to go up into BC from Washington every couple of years ... all the way up to Prince George and across to Smithers (and once even to Prince Rupert), golfing and fishing the whole way.

    A lot of the people who post here, also post over at the Paper Money Forum, and it's it bit more active than this board regarding Currency.

    I'm from Ontario. I lived in Vancouver for a couple years 1998/1999 & periodically went down to Blaine, WA or would watch the snowy caps of Mount Rainer, (& the city lights of Seattle from Victoria, BC - lived there for about 3 months of those 2 years). Didn't get up north much while there (nor fished) but just travelled through the interior a bit.

    Yes, I know of the PMF. It's great but I already keep quite active in 3 other forums (plus must nurse my own site). B)
