Description

Poughkeepsie, NY - Bank of Poughkeepsie $1 Nov. 1, 1830 NY-2295 C2 Counterfeit. PCGS Fine 12 Apparent.
This is rare contemporary counterfeit and not pictured in Haxby. Some of the Chas. Toppan details merit scrutiny, but the portraits fail miserably. Livestock at the top center are flanked by dies. The base vignette shows a dog and safe. Noted with "Missing LL Corner; Tape on Back."
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.
