[nited] S.[tates] A.[rmy]. Five Cents. Printed in all red on off white bond paper. 170mm by 63mm. A mostly typeset note with eagle under the curved 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA' across the top with large end counters, 'V' left and '5' at the right. Dog's head at the base. Across the center, the title in Gothic font. Below, 'Will pay Bearer Five Cents in Merchandise.' Lower right, engraved signature over issuer title. Keller OH-SH005. Rarity 7. Unissued remainder [?]. The lack of a written serial number leads us to this conclusion. A superb example with deep embossing and bold colors. Choice About Uncirculated due to handling.
