In  case  anybody  didn't  notice,  the  Heritage Coins auction of 20 January 2008
lists a  Molsons Bank 1871  $7  note  in VG  condition  (lot number 13286).  Anybody happen  to  know  just  how  many of these  are known??

Twelve known at present.  Not really in the top class as far as rarity goes, but in demand because of the unusual denomination.

I would say the note received very positive results as far as time of year and the extensive restorations suffered.
