Description
Fort Edward, NY - E. Willoughby at my Store at Fort Edward 9 Cents February 10, 1815 Harris UNL. PCGS Fine 15 Apparent.An early, and perhaps unique, odd denomination scrip note on laid paper. Ornamental type borders are on all sides, with the border at left completely different in style from the others. The denomination NINE CENTS is at the top, and Willoughby's signature at the bottom. The back shows a large "9 Cents." Noted with the "Missing UL Corner; Edge and Internal Splits and Tears; Minor Stains." Likely the only example known.
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.
