John Patterson [Sutler] Col. White's Regiment. One Dollar. '1862'. Printed in black on thick...") MISSOURI. John Patterson [Sutler] Col. White's Regiment. One Dollar. '1862'. Printed in black on thick white paper. 110mm by 57mm. Typeset note within ornate frame. The left panel with perpendicular '1 ONE 1'. In the top corners, 'ONE' with serial 'No.' position at top center. Text: 'On demand I will pay ONE DOLLAR [sloping back, shaded gray]/to bearer in Confederate Notes or Missouri/Bonds when 10 Dollars is presented'. Space for signature lower right. At bottom left 'Col. White's Regiment...1862'. No imprint. Keller MO-SA100. Rarity 7. The Keller Plate Note.
Signed and with serial number ''1''. We are not certain how much veracity to give the number or signature, but the note hails from the Criswell catalogue in 1977. John Patterson is not listed in either register in the Keller book. However, all that may not mean much as this is an excessively rare form and also not in the Vacca Collection. In fact, the Vacca Missouri Collection did not contain a solitary Missouri Sutler note! Several folds, but sturdy and with strong crispness. Some modest soiling at the lower right. Extra wide top margin and Choice Very Fine. A wonderful rarity and plate note from Keller.
Ex Grover Criswell Collection (Kagin's ANA 86th Convention Sale, August 23-28 1977, lot 4363).
The regiment from the 9th Infantry was organized in October, 1862 out of Missouri State Guardsman. They were renamed the 12th Missouri Infantry Regiment in 1863/1864.
