$20 Bill with Del Monte Sticker Sells


Heritage Galleries auctions genuine rarities in a large group of categories, but their recent auction of a 1996 twenty dollar bill may qualify as the rarest as well as the oddest. Printed in 1996, a twenty dollar bill with a red, green and yellow Del Monte Sticker to the right of Andrew Jackson's portrait sold for $25,300.

The bill sold during their recent Signature auction in Orlando, Florida. That auction, which ran in conjunction with the Florida United Numismatist Convention, saw over $34 Million in sales. For complete details on the event, please visit Scoop's article in this week's auction section.
