    His note looks to be VF condition. What about the note posted here?

    ObsoleteCurrency I like old money.

    Your $5 note is Haxby OH-230-G20.

    The Bank Of Granville operated illegally from 1839 - 1842 by the Granville Alexandrian Society. It looks like it would be a good note to conserve so if you decide you want to remove it off the scrapbook I would recommend professional assistance.

    Other notes from the Bank Of Granville exist from the 1860's but no such bank existed in the 1860's so they were "official fantasies" as Haxby put it.
