Description
Omaha City, Nebraska. Brownville Bank and Land Company. September 1, 1857 $5. Haxby NE-50-G4a. PCGS Banknote About Uncirculated 55.
No. 1010. Plate A. Green lace tint. Imprint of Danforth, Wright & Co. New York & Philada. Large rafting vignette at center. Family scene at left. Allegorical females at right. Large white and brown "FIVE" protector at bottom. Signed and fully issued; indeed a lovely example that is easily the finest example to have availed itself at public auction. The varying tints used on this "bank of issue" were intentionally complex by their nefarious perpetrators who invested heavily to have the finest two-color steel plates engraved in New York for a considerable sum. The bank did not exist in Nebraska, but the notes were launched far away in an effort to frustrate redemption. The brown tinted notes are at least six to eight time rarer than the green tinted ones.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
