Description
Unique Monson Bank Proof Ace
Monson, Massachusetts. Monson Bank. 18xx $1. Haxby MA-835-G2; W-MA-2240-001-G010. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. Proof.
India paper Proof by American Bank Note Company, New York/Jocelyn, Draper, Welsh & Co.An SENC type and not illustrated anywhere; Haxby or Whitman and a bank that is difficult to find. Interestingly enough, this institution used two different designs for their $1 notes. The bank title can be found along the top margin. A female presumably representing Liberty or America can be found at left holding a sword and shield with a cornucopia at her feet. At center, a vignette of a Native warrior can be seen pondering the encroachment of civilization. A female portrait can be found at right below the rightmost denomination counter. This is the only example with this design known to us and likely remains unique since it first appeared at auction in 1990.
Estimate: $1200.00- $1600.00
