Rolla, MO - Unknown Issuer \"Due the Bearer\" 25 Cents 1862. Remainder. PCGS Very Choice New 64 Apparent. This mysterious remainder note from Rolla is from an unidentified issuer. There are initials on parts of the central vignette, but their significance is not known. Rolla was in Phelps County, Missouri, and under Union control. The southwest branch of the Pacific Railroad terminated there, and troops were offloaded in Rolla to continue on to southwest theatre battles by wagon. Printed on white bond paper without an imprint. The top central vignette has a globe showing named continents of \"America,\" \"Africa,\" and \"Europe.\" Flanking are barrels and bales; three are initialed as \"IT,\" \"ER,\" and \"J.R.\" Fancy ends have dies in the corners and circular vignettes between: a soldier brandishing a sword and waving the American flag at left, and a sailor standing on deck at right. The obligation states, \"Payable in Bank Notes, in sums of One Dollar, and upwards.\" Unnumbered and unsigned. The date \"1862\" is lightly penned at top right, but likely added later. Noted with \"Mounting Remnants on Back.\" An interesting note and much different from many types in the collection. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society\n\n
