Description

Savannah, GA- Central Rail Road and Banking Company of Georgia $10 18__ G50a Proof PMG Choice Uncirculated 63.
The enterprise was founded in 1833 as a railroad and canal company but soon set its eyes on banking and changed its name to the Central Rail Road and Banking Company of Georgia in 1835 to reflect that additional focus. The line was completed in 1843, running 191 miles from Savannah to Macon, GA. The company survived the Civil War and eventually was acquired by Southern Railway Co., now part of Norfolk Southern Railway. The note is an exquisite red and black National Bank Note design featuring a large vignette of Liberty and another of an eagle on a federal shield. The note has a large red protector panel, borders, and counters. This note is on card with four POCs in the signature lines. This is the only example of this note that we have handled and of which we are aware at present in Proof form. In its last appearance in late 2021, it crossed the auction block for $3,360. This beautiful rarity should test that level again tonight.
