Description

Canada Fredericton, NB- Central Bank of New Brunswick $1 (5 Shillings) 1.11.1847 Ch.# 95-10-04-02 PMG Good 4. This bank was established in 1834 and was successfully operated for more than twenty years before falling victim to adverse business conditions in 1866. Even after it failed, all of the creditors were paid in full, with enough left over for a final dividend to its shareholders. All signed and issued notes from this institution are quite rare, with this example the first we have handled from the bank's 1847-dated issue. Despite its amount of circulation, it is a truly rare note and carries a value of $2,250 in Good in the Charlton reference. From the Rick Johnston Collection
