MU-1-ii. 15th May, 1851. Signed Sherwood at right. F/VF. Charlton states "The United Counties of Leeds and Grenville issued £25 debentures in the early 1850's, which bore 6% annual interest paid twice yearly. Although these securities had the appearance and dimensions of bank notes, it is doubtful whether they circulated to any great extent because of their large denomination. Interest payments are usually found recorded on the back. The debentures were pen cancelled. S/N:264
