Great notes for sure and the ABN Co does have a magical way of capturing your attention from the vast array of engraving from yesteryear! I am hooked my self...and trying to stay within my collection them at the moment! Thas waht got me into some of the Obsoletes.."The American Bank Note Company" a rich history and a good read! RickieB
Lovely notes, now with that 1914 Mexican look at the top and you should see Vera Cruz and a date is it the same as the lower date 1914 ? not sure if you can see it properly on this one that I have but the lower date is 1914 and the upper 1915 LOL I also have the notes with both dates the same.
Really nice notes. Thanks for sharing! It's nice to see that I'm not alone with a fixation on ABNC foreign notes.
urbanchemist, those are some very nice notes. The 10 Pesos revolutionary note from Veracruz is listed in my specialized catalog as Dec 1, 1914, brown reverse, large 10 at right, series C, C or D serial number suffix. Catalog number #S 1107-a. According to the catalog there are 12 variations to this 10 peso note. I like that one peso coin on the reverse of the note. De Orc, some notes do have 1914 on the lower part and 1915 on the upper part of the note. Yours 1 peso note is the curved base type, curved 1 on the top right. For more info I would have to see the reverse of the notes. Lou
De Orc, the catalog # S1101-a, date 5.2.1915, black on under print, curved based 1's in corners, series A. Some of the other 1 peso notes have over printing on the back. Lou
