Charleston, MO - Western Bank of Missouri, at their Bank in Charleston $1 July 1, 1861 MO-70 G18a SENC. PCGS Fine 12 Apparent. All notes from this bank are very rare, like nearly all Missouri notes that were created by the 1857 Act. The main bank was in St. Joseph and notes were also authorized from three branches. This Charleston branch unregistered series $1 is SENC in Haxby and perhaps unique. It has a beautiful layout by the American Bank Note Co. Philada., with the imprint seen at bottom right. An intricate frame is all around and makes a compartment at the left third, in the style of Lymen's Patent notes, enclosing an Agriculture vignette. In the right two-thirds, under the curved title, is a scene of slaves Breaking Hemp, as titled by the ABN, with machines. The vermillion color tint plate features dual \"1\" dies flanking the head in the left compartment and a micro-lettered denomination guilloche along the bottom right two thirds with flanking \"1\" protectors. Plate B. No. 4022. Noted by grading are \"Small Edge Tears; Minor Adhesive Residue on Back.\" The only issued note from this series sold by us realized $1,092.50 in 2011. It was severed, rejoined, and had other faults. This well-detailed circulated note still boasts strong color. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society \n\n
