Jefferson City, MO - State of Missouri-Union Military Bond $5 Nov. 1, 1863 Cr. UG13. PCGS About New 53PPQ. A superb Missouri Union Military Bond with the engraved date of \"1863.\" The $5 denomination is exceptionally well styled by the American Bank Note Co. Philada.; the imprint is at the lower right. A dramatic frontier scene occupies the top left. Evocative of Missouri's early years, the vignette shows hunters with a fallen deer over the back of a horse at their encampment. Cupped into part of the curved title is a portrait of Attorney General Edward Bates. The obligation is across the bottom of the note. The green back has the enactment date of March 9, 1863, with FIVE/5 across the center along with several dies. Endorsed on the bottom margin. Plate C. No. 29803. This is nearly fully framed, with the inspiring paper quality even more of an enhancement. One of the finest known Union Military Bonds of any denomination, and perhaps the finest of its type. A riveting example. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society \n\n
