Bank of Fayetteville. $5.00. B. Fayetteville, NY. 1850's. India paper Proof by Wellstood, Hanks, Hay & Whiting, New York. The Bank die is at the top center, supported by an ornate frame enclosing the title and obligations. At each end are young girls. Haxby NY-845 G8 SENC. A very uniquely styled vignette layout and the first we have seen. The upper right corner is deftly rejoined, otherwise Very Choice. A superb proof note in all respects.
