Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Bank of North America. 1828 $5. Very Fine. Contemporary Counterfeit.
No. 874. Plate E. Imitating a genuine issue from the Bank of North America; this note has the unusual distinction of bearing a printed back design which happens to be a scarce trait among notes of this vintage. The engraved elements of the design are fairly crude in composition with the vignette at bottom center utterly botching the human form as the female figure at right resembles a stereotypical depiction of an alien.

Estimate: $100.00- $200.00
