Glasgow, MO - J. S. Thomson Banker and Broker 10 Cents January 1, 1863. Remainder. PCGS Fine 15. An unusual and rare J. S. Thomson, Glasgow, 10 cent scrip note. Lithographed by Hatch & Co., N. Y. on white paper. The left end with his title and service are cleanly shaved away, and the note has received considerable circulation, perhaps locally as currency. Trimming off the end made it a more convenient size, more like that of the notes circulating at the time. The layout is similar to the other notes in the series. In the remaining two-thirds, the vignette of a beehive and agricultural goods at top center is flanked by two red \"10\" dies. The date is across and the denomination \"GOOD FOR/ TEN CENTS/ in Current funds\" is under the vignette. The serial numeral and signature blocks are below. Technically, the note is incomplete. However, it is intriguing and possibly circulated as actual change in a town raided by Confederate Major General Sterling Price on October 15, 1864. Ex: Eric P.
