NEW YORK. Bank of Lake Erie. $2.00. Buffalo. October 1, 1847. Proof on India paper by Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson. Busy harbor scene; Perry at the upper left over State Die; lower right with standing Hope and Commerce. NY-420 G4. Like the $1.00, the Haxby Plate came from Vattemare. Another outstanding looking RWHE proof note with great style. Worth a strong bid, perhaps near or over the four figure mark. Choice.
