[QUOTE="funkee, post: 1608158, member: 37925"]This bad boy finally arrived. 1872 $50 South Carolina Revenue Bond Scrip. This is my first obsolete note, and what a beauty it is. It has one light fold (no crease) in the corner. Lyn Knight called it AU. The margins on this note are absolutely horrific. Did they not know how to cut in straight lines in the 1870s? Whoever cut this note used scissors and had to be heavily intoxicated. [IMG]http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/6282/sc1qp.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/384/sc2w.jpg[/IMG] It really reminds me of the 1878 $50 legal tender series with the fancy L's. Of course this South Carolina note is far more affordable. [IMG]http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/1530/fr154.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
