Description

We are immensely proud to present a rare piece of American sports history coupled with numismatic intrigue - a Series 1963A $1 Federal Reserve Note personally autographed by the legendary baseball icon, Jimmie "Double X" Foxx. This artifact isn't merely an item of financial transaction; it is a symbol of the golden age of baseball, a touchstone for collectors of sports memorabilia, and a unique find for the aficionado of American currency. Jimmie Foxx, one of the titans of baseball, left an indelible mark on the sport during the pre-war era, slugging his way into the hearts of fans and the annals of sports legend. Known for his thunderous batting prowess, Foxx was a three-time MVP and a prodigious slugger, ranking as one of the all-time greatest hitters in Major League Baseball. Playing primarily for the Philadelphia Athletics and the Boston Red Sox, his achievements etched his name in Cooperstown with an induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1951. This $1 bill, bearing Foxx's carefully penned autograph, emphasizes his exalted place in America's pastime. The currency itself is an artifact reflecting the economic and political climate of the early 1960s United States, coming into circulation shortly after John F. Kennedy's vision of a new frontier began to take form. This particular piece of currency has been elegantly preserved and is displayed in a state-of-the-art, museum-quality custom frame that has been designed to archival standards. The aim is to ensure the longevity and safety of this precious keepsake without compromising its visual appeal. The frame is accompanied by UV-protective plexiglass to prevent any fading of the note or signature, thereby safeguarding this investment for years to come. Provenance-wise, the autograph on the bill is authenticated by leading experts in the field and accompanied by a certificate verifying its legitimacy. This is a critical detail, as signatures of individuals of Foxx's caliber are scrutinized to confirm their authenticity. Adding to its already significant historic and collector value, the note rests perfectly within its customized protective casing, which features a sophisticated design aesthetic befitting an artifact of such magnitude. An engraved plaque details Foxx's achievements and a brief narrative of the note's historic timeline, enhancing the display and conversational intrigue.
