Description
Mount Carmel, IL- Citizens Bank $5 18__ as G6a Proof PMG Choice Uncirculated 63.The Citizens Bank was organized in 1856 and failed in 1861 due to the collapse of the prices of southern state bonds securing its circulation. The portfolio consisted of bonds from primarily Missouri, as well as Virginia and Tennessee. The bank was declared insolvent and placed in liquidation on August 30, 1861, by state authorities.
The $5 design features a vignette of Prosperity seated with distant agricultural and industrial scenes in the background, flanked by the state auditor die and a corner vignette of Ceres seated at left and a portrait of a young girl shielding her eyes at right. An overall orange tint with an elaborate orange and white 5 - V - 5 protector and two smaller white FIVE protectors complete the design. The note is printed on India paper with four POCs in the signature lines. There were ten examples of this variety in the 1990 ABNCo Archives sale.
