St. Charles, MO - Treasury or any of the Loan Offices of the State of Missouri $1 at 2% per Year (Act of June 27, 1821) Oct. 1, 1821 Cr. 02. PCGS Very Fine 35 Apparent. A third 1821 State Loan Office type from the Newman Collection and perhaps the first $1 issued example cataloged for public auction. This is the 1992 edition Criswell plate note illustrated on page 271. There were no dollar-denominated notes in the Vacca Collection, only the 50 cents in this sale. This $1 example is genuine despite being printed from a plate without the deep details observed on the Harrison imprint proof previous. The final notes were printed from plates of lesser quality than normally seen from the East. The paper is quite sturdy and exhibits blue fibers observed from the back. Layout and style are similar to the Harrison $1 proof: a Native American man canoeing past a beaver, fancy end panels with denominations, and two oval dies at the top. With the engraved \"St. Charles\" location at the left, and the fully engraved date of \"1st Oct 1821\" spread across the center. Signed by the treasurer and auditor. Plate C. No. 1715. Noted by PCGS with \"Mounting Remnants on Back; Pinholes; Minor Ink Erosion.\" There are numerous pinholes in the center, one of which is extended into a body hole in the vignette. Otherwise, the note is very wholesome and bright. Another extremely important Missouri note of the highest rarity. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society \n\n
