Canal Dover $100 Brown Back

Canal Dover, OH - $100 1882 Brown Back Fr. 524 The First NB Ch. # 4331
A truly rare high denomination example bearing the town name that, although never officially adopted by the community, was used by the Post Office to distinguish this community from other locations in Ohio which also adopted the name Dover. Canal Dover AKA Dover was a small town junction on the Tuscarawas River but its fortunes changed dramatically in 1825 when the Tuscarawas was incorporated into the Ohio Canal system, a canal complex that linked the Ohio River to the Great Lakes and the Erie Canal. Dover became the only tolling station on the Tuscarawas, and the population grew rapidly from 46 in 1820 to almost 600 in 1840, nearly 1700 in 1870 and over 5,000 in 1900. This is one of only four notes extant bearing the Canal Dover nomenclature, which was used from 1890 until 1916, and the only $100 Brown Back. PCGS Fine 15, a well margined example with nice pen signatures and enough rarity to matter, as Track & Price shows no notes offered bearing this title for the past two decades.
