Shilling-Denominated Fort Edward Note

Fort Edward, NY - Sackride & Willoughby at our Store in Fort-Edward 2 Shillings November 29, 1814. PCGS Very Fine 20 Apparent.
A shilling-denominated note from this extremely rare issuer. More elaborate than the smaller denomination above. The double line border is still on three sides, but the left end shows border cuts and type ornaments. The denomination is across the top as "2 shillings," and is completely spelled out on the back of the note. There are only some "Small Edge Tears; Minor Stains" noted. A very charming note and a great rarity.
Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

Truth Seeker: The Life of Eric P. Newman (softcover)
A powerful and intimidating dealer of the 1960s, backed by important colleagues, was accused of selling fraudulent gold coins and ingots to unsuspecting numismatists. Who would go up against a man like that and, over the course of decades, prove the fraud? Who would expose a widely respected scholar as a thief, then doggedly pursue recovery of coins that the scholar had stolen from an embarrassed numismatic organization, all over the objections of influential collectors who had bought coins with clouded titles? Eric P. Newman would - and did. Reserve your copy today.
