This sale features 155 lots from Rich Jurek's collection, including notably flown $2 bills from the Jefferson Space Museum.

For example, see Gene Cernan's three-time-flown $2 bill.

Though I regret seeing his collection being broken up, we are all just temporary custodians for the pieces we curate and this way more people can take joy in and further the research that Rich began.

Thanks, Robert for the post. Yes, after many decades, and for various personal reasons, now is the time for me to pass the torch on many of these one-of-a-kind items. It's time for the next generation of curators to carry the torch with them....
