Description
Brooklyn, NY- Nassau Bank of Brooklyn $3 Mar. 1, 1859 G6 PCGS Banknote Choice Fine 15.The Nassau Bank of Brooklyn opened in 1859 and remained in business during the Civil War until becoming the Nassau National Bank of Brooklyn in New York (Charter 658) in 1864. This note has a custom vignette of the launching of the S.S. Adriatic on April 7, 1856 in New York. At the time of her launch, the Adriatic was the largest ship in the world. When launched, the ship's momentum was so great that she crashed into the Williamsburg docks on the opposite side of the East River, destroying fifteen feet of the docks in the process. The Adriatic was an ill-starred vessel and finally was abandoned as a hulk, declared irreparable, in Nigeria in 1885. The note also has a portrait of Franklin at right and the state bank department die at left. This note has several POC's as well as a number of pinholes.
