<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 2020963, member: 22729&quot;][ATTACH=full]365819[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]365818[/ATTACH] I picked up these two new notes from Allan Teal at the Baltimore show. Both are new additions to series that I&#039;m collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Egg Harbor $10 is listed by Wait as W-525 and is / was an R-4. The note is dated July 10, 1861 and is signed by William Paddock and Charles Herman. The bank was chartered in 1861 but was in business for only a year. There were about a dozen different denominations and varieties issued. I only have a $1, $5, and this $10 so have a long way to go to finish the series.</p><p><br /></p><p>The S.W.&amp; W.A. Torrey private scrip is another series I&#039;m trying to complete. So far I have a 25 cent, $1, and $5 example in my collection. This note isn&#039;t in the best of shape but it&#039;s the only one I&#039;ve seen so far in this denomination.</p><p><br /></p><p>Samuel and William Torrey were brothers who operated a charcoal furnace in Manchester Twp., Ocean Co., NJ in the 1860s. While dated June 15, 1861, the note has been rubber-stamped &quot;Mar 1, 63&quot;. All the Torrey notes I&#039;ve seen are stamped this way but not always with the same date. Do any of you guys know what the added stamp means. Thanks for looking.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
