this is in excellent shape but once again the quality taken with a cell phone to day didnt make it look good, its newfoundland placentia i believe i dont have here in front of me right now.have a look and thoughts please its a lot clear when you look at it in person, very dull with the cell phone pic..
Interesting piece of paper. (When it comes time to get a new printer, one of those multifunction types with a built in scanner will do wonders for you.) I like promissory paper. We focus on gold and silver too much, I feel. Even Ayn Rand recognized that the value of gold rests on a social contract. A bill of exchange is an important artifact of trade and commerce. Thanks!
placentia newfoundland 1815 bill of xchange, older then one at th rooms museum think ...i cant believe the signatures on this its amasing like 8 0r 10 on the back and several on the front, i have to use a very good camera and take some super high quality pics of it, i know some of these sell for alot, from what research i have done.anyone into this stuff mybe able to verify or recognize signatures when pic retaken, its a 5 pound note...
Again, the Wikipedia article cited says that the bills would be passed from one drawee to another. This paper in particular was pre-printed with that very expectation. Nice as it is, I now must sense that Maggie is "flogging" this. In other words, Maggie123 wants to sell and is hoping to create some interest, though, admitting an inability to actually record the images and admitting not having done any research. See, here's the thing... It is sort of an "anti-capitalist mentality" that if Mags owned the note and wanted to enjoy it more, that's fine, but if Mags want to sell it, then I feel put upon. But, then, too, I have to ask like a hero from Atlas Shrugged, "What's in it for me?" If I identified all the signatures and provided their life stories, when Maggie123 unloads this scrap paper on eBay, do I get a cut of the pie? Or is Mags just using me and us as sheep to be shorn for our knowledge?
