Description
New York, New York. New York Clearing House Association. 1908 $10,000. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. Specimen.
Engraved with imprint of the American Bank Note Co. on both sides. Full gray-blue tint on both sides. Within the color tinting, corner view vignette of J.P. Morgan's bank building on the corner of Wall and Broad (later Chase Bank, still in this location). Lower right, capped Liberty head as used on many ABN engraved certificates. Titles across top left with large counter at the upper right. Obligation text across the bottom center, this deposit type in "U.S. Silver Certificates". The back perpendicular to the face with space for endorsement stamps and imprint at the bottom. Stamped "SPECIMEN" on face twice in red. Date stamped in violet "Feb 5, 1908" and with "RETURN TO ISSUE ROOM" stamping by the ABN archives. A great rarity in any form and likely known in proof specimen form only. This is the first of four different $10,000 Certificate of Deposit forms from the New York Clearing House and used in the 1907-1908 period. Each is different in color corresponding to the three different obligations used. Each deposit form would be redeemed in different types of Federal printed paper currency. The different colors would make it much easier for the other clearing houses to collate what certificates they were holding to return back to New York for notes or in the case of this example Silver Certificates. PMG comments "Printer's Stamp."
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
