<p>[QUOTE="goincarcrazy, post: 2201878, member: 25004"]About 5 years ago now, I came across this sheet in an antique store. It is an uncut sheet (2 $2's and 2 $3's) from the Merchant's Bank of Jackson County, Brooklyn Michigan. From what I've gathered, this isn't the earlier 1830's/1840's issue, but is the issue that can only be found as remainders (never issued, unsigned and undated unless falsely filled in). Condition appears to be XF/AU or so with 3 light creases where it was folded in quarters at one point. Back when I got them, a member here, gsalexan helped me out by recommending using the public library to find the "Standard Catalog of United States Obsolete Bank Notes 1782-1866" but the Jacksonville Library system couldn't do that, and besides past auctions (and there's not many) I simply don't know where to look for info or a value for this series of notes. So I ask all you obsolete buffs out there, if you have a chance, what do any of your books say on this series? Any references I should try to look for online? ANY help is much appreciated!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/goingcarcrazy/042ad922.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
