Here is one that is seldom seen. This is an original $1.00 bank note from Howardsville, Virginia. This one was issued by the Bank of Howardsville. These were used from 1856 until 1861. The Bank of Howardsville was authorized by the General Assembly in 1856. It originally operated as a free bank until just before the beginning of the Civil War when it began issuing unregistered notes. The bank's ultimate fate is somewhat unclear, but it was very likely a casualty of the war. This one is issued for $1 from 1861. It is print dated from September 3rd 1861 and is hand signed and numbered. It is very well worn but still displays well.
