Macerated Currency
Rare U.S. Capital Building Made Of Macerated Currency

Macerated Currency, U.S. Capital Building, Very Rare, Choice Near Mint.
This Macerated Currency figure, measuring 2.25" tall by 3.5" wide by 2.25" deep, depicts the U.S. Capital Building, seat of the United States Congress. The label attached to the front of the figure reads: "The 'Capital' made of United Sates macerated paper money at Wash. D.C. Estimated $10,000." This figure is in choice condition, with the label having browned somewhat with age. A bit of the back of the dome is missing, which may have happened when this piece was made. This is a very rare form of Macerated Currency, and the first we have seen.



Early American will accept payment by check or credit card.
