The selection of paper money was highlighted by Property from a Commonwealth Avenue Mansion in Boston, MA. A Series 1875 $10 National Bank Note from the Briggs National Bank of Clyde, NY, and an Original Series "Lazy Deuce" $2 National Bank Note from The Saugerties National Bank, NY, (c. 1863–1875) soared past their $200-400 estimates to achieve an identical $1,815. The "Lazy Deuce" note takes its nickname from the large, ornate numeral 2 printed horizontally on its face.
