New York, NY. The Union Bank. Five Dollars. PCGS graded Fine-12.
Haxby NY-1946-C54. This is a well printed Counterfeit type which copies from the original plates by Peter Maverick. There is a central vignette of a Woman reclining on boxes of merchandise, with a Sailing Ship in the background. It is pleasing for its graded, with some prior mounting trace thins on the blank reverse side resulting in the holder stating “Apparent paper pulls on back, internal tears”. Issued and dated 1830. One of the scarcer types on this bank, with excellent eye appeal and being historical appeal.
