<p>[QUOTE=&quot;justbored, post: 1997185, member: 39990&quot;]I agree with gsalexan that the Fort Wayne and Southern Railroad note looks legit. Haxby only includes banks. I think the auction descriptions are misleading in that being a railroad company, this note is not just not listed in Haxby but is actually outside of the scope of the work.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the top note, it is actually a Michigan City and South Bend Plank Road Co. note payable at the Exchange Bank of Daniel Ball &amp; Co. in Grand Rapids, MI. There are examples of this company on HA, but they are all later notes payable at the Exchange Bank of H.J. Perrin &amp; Co. of Michigan City, IN. after the payable location was switched. Again, I believe that this note would be outside of the scope of Haxby.</p><p><br /></p><p>I stand by my conservative estimate of these notes selling for a total of AT LEAST $700 on the open market.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t see this kind of conversation on this board very often <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
