La Banque Du Peuple, Five Dollars, One Pound, Five Shillings, 1 Mars, 1845, CH 575-16-02-30, S/N:279, “D”, graded by PMG VG-10. This is the only known issued example of this type for this denomination. We would love to call it a “discovery note”, but it was actually known 27 years ago, as witnessed by a letter from Charlton’s, signed by William K. Cross, attesting to this fact, dated April 10th, 1990. While the note does have some edge problems, as well as some internal holes, it faces up boldly for the grade. Additionally, the blue back design is also bold. A presentable example of a very rare note.
