Iron Mountain, MO - American Iron Mountain Co. payable to Jules Valle Esq. St. Louis $1 185_. PCGS Good 6 Apparent. The $1 denomination from this 1850s series was in the Vacca sale, but it had a different payable: to \"Messrs. P. Chouteau, Jr. & Co.\" instead of \"Jules Valle\" seen here. Engraved and printed by W.L. Ormsby, New York. The layout is very similar to the other denominations known from the issue ($1, $2, $3, and $5). Under the curved title, the central vignette shows a locomotive and cars heading west as a small paddle wheeler heads east. The left end has a \"1\" die at the top, profile cameo head below, and ONE block at the base. President William Henry Harrison is at lower right and a \"1\" die is above. These notes were to \"pay at sight to ____or Order ONE DOLLAR in Specie.\" This denomination was payable to \"Jules Valle Esq. Treas.\" Plate A. Very low grade and not signed. Noted with Tape Repairs on Back.\" All notes from this issuer are rare, and this is very collectible. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society \n\n
