Description
Washington, DC- Farmers & Merchants Bank $1.25; $1.50; $1.75 1862 G14a; G16a; G18aThe bank was one of the longer lived DC banks, operating from approximately 1851 to 1863. It issued the three unusual denomination notes that comprise this lot. The $1.25 features an interesting vignette of the U.S. Capitol building which appears to have the dome rendered in lesser detail than the rest of the building. When this note was issued, the dome was still in the process of being erected and your cataloger believes that the vignette was altered to reflect this change. An earlier version of the vignette which appears on other bank notes features the Capitol with its earlier smaller dome which had been finished in 1824. All three notes feature a portrait of the bank's president, William T. Smithson, and grade About Uncirculated. (Total: 3 notes)
