Most of these expressions can be called "jargon." Jargon is normally used by specialists in a field or profession to further describe some concept; but in many cases, it is simply used to confuse or cloud an issue. We in paper money are not immune to this onslaught and we have quite a bit of fun with our "language." Most paper money jargon seems to be justified as it helps explain concisely things that would otherwise take a lot of words. For example, take the term "mule" which is used everyday by collectors of small notes to describe plate check letter varieties. You and I know the meaning of that one (if you don't see The Standard Handbook of Modern. U.S. Paper Money, 2nd Ed., page 10) but suppose we nonchalantly drop this term on one of our unsuspecting non-collector friends. He might well wonder who kicked the buck! Error collecting is growing at an unprecedented rate because this field offers an unlimited opportunity for adventure and specialization. With this growth, we are experiencing a shortage of terms needed to describe our notes. I would like to rectify at least one of these fuzzy areas by defining some new jargon. First, before I try the hard sell on these terms, let me outline the problem that I wish to avoid. Once in a while, the lucky error collector discovers a note that contains more than one mistake or misprint. Often, the two mistakes are the result of the same mechanical malfunction; but, in some very rare instances. the two errors were created by two completely indepen- dent malfunctions. Are both of these types double errors? How should we classify errors on star notes; are these double errors too? Let us explore this problem with some typical examples that illustrate the point. Take a sheet of paper that has become badly wrinkled. Some notes from the sheet will have two or more gutters (jargon for a wrinkle that unfolds to leave a white streak through the note). Should such a note be called a double error? Not in my book—the gutters are all the result of a single malfunction. Now contrast this to a note that has both a gutter and a mismatched serial number. Notice that the errors are the result of two independent mechanical malfunc- tions. This note is a true double error and should reach a much higher price range due to its uniqueness. How should we differentiate between the two? I had the pleasure of discussing this point with Jim Greene of North Carolina, one of the country's most avid error collectors. Jim had run across this problem and had a ready-made solution. Invent a new term! The terms he suggested were equally sound. Call the error that results from two independent mechanical or human malfunctions a DOUBLE ERROR. Call the one with more than one mistake due to a single malfunction a MULTIPLE ERROR. This made a lot of sense because the terms were descriptive as well as distinctive. Where does this leave star note errors? No place. which is exactly where I think they belong. Star note errors are appealing because they normally indicate that some busy inspector actually replaced an existing error with another one. Other than that, nothing more can be said. It happens all the time, as is proven by the fact that we have no shortage of star errors. Now that you have been dazzled by the new jargon. some examples will help show how it can be used effec- tively. Several photos accompany this article and are labeled multiple or double errors. An explanation is in order. Multiple Errors The starred $5 Legal Tender error in Figure 1 has two obvious gutters and three that are very fine and probably don't show in the photo. This note is ob- viously the result of a sheet that was badly wrinkled. Because all the gutters have a common origin. a wrinkled sheet, the error is classed as a multiple error. The fact that it is a star note is just icing on the cake. Had the wrinkles been worse. part of the next note would have shown in one of the margins on the reverse. This is very common but still must be classed as a multiple error. Figure 2. the $20 with selvedge on the corner and off center seals and serial numbers. is a little harder to define. Here, a little knowledge of the printing opera- tion is in order along with a close look at the note. It is obvious from the way the corner is cut that the corner was folded up into a series of overlapping folds. These folds are, of course. evident in the paper. Does the selvedge have anything to do with low placement of the seals and signatures? The answer is yes and if we follow the printing process. the reason becomes clear. After the backs and faces are printed. the outer margins of the sheet are trimmed away before the seals and serials are overprinted. The selvedge does not affect any printing so the folds occurred between the face printing and trimming operation. The corner folds left a relatively thick wad of paper (four sheets thick) on the corner of the sheet. Consequently, when the sheet was fed through the overprinting press, it jammed slightly and caused the sheet to become skewed, which resulted in poorly aligned signatures. Dirt and grease on the wad- ded-up corner of the note is additional evidence that it actually did jam in the press. The note is given multi- ple error status because both errors resulted from the folded-up corner. Double Errors The remaining two errors are true double errors and are indeed show pieces simply because they are so hard to find.

Double error 1950E New York $50 Federal Reserve Note (folded-over corner and offset transfer of reverse on folded-over corner) errors falling on the same note. the statistics run away with themselves. The first error. Figure 3, has a gutter on the face and an offset transfer on the right reverse. These are two independent errors and happened as follows: The offset occurred during face printing when the preceding sheet failed to completely cover the face plate. The impression roller picked up the ink from the uncovered portion of the plate and offset this on the reverse of the next few sheets that passed through the press. Ours was one of these. However, when the sheet containing our note was feeding into the face press. it was also wrinkled and a gutter formed. Consequently. two absolutely independent mechanical mistakes were involved in the printing of this note so it is a double error. Figure 4 shows a very unique and extremely interest- ing double error. The lower left corner on the reverse of the $50 has a queer wing that, in part, mirrors the "50." The "wing" is, in fact. an offset transfer from the reverse impression roller. This spectacular variety was created by folded-over corners on two adjacent sheets. The corners were folded prior to the reverse print- ing. The corner of the sheet containing our note was folded over onto the face of the sheet. This would nor- mally leave a triangular blank on the reverse corner after the reverses were printed. The foldover on the preceding sheet was approximately 3/16ths of an inch further into the corner than the one carrying this note. When the impression roller picked up the ink intended for the corner of the preceding sheet, it nicely offset part of that ink onto the face of our note. However. since our sheet was also folded over, the offset landed perfectly on the foldover tab instead of the face. Now, before the face was printed, our sheet was unfolded. It con- tinued through the remaining processes normally and fortunately escaped the watchful eyes of the inspectors. This note is called a double error because it received an offset from a malfunction on the preceding sheet as well as the triangular foldover that occurred on itself.

Hakes The Ellensburgh (properly spelled Ellensburg) Na- tional Bank was assigned charter #3867 on April 14, 1888, and started with a capital of 550,000. The bank was suspended July 27, 1893, but resumed business on October 21st of the same year. The title then changed to Kittitas Valley National Bank in October of 1895. Due to incompetent management the bank was closed on July 10, 1896, and eight days later was placed in receivership. Outstanding amount at this time was $11,250. Ralph Kauffman (cashier) was a locally prominent hanker in the area for many years but nothing else is known about him from this author's research. Austin Mires signed the note as vice-president. Mires had much to do with the history of Ellensburg and Washington as evidenced by books such as: History of Washington, Idaho, and Montana (Bancroft: 1890) and his personal diary. Mires was born in Des Moines County, Iowa in 1852, the son of farmers. A year later his parents moved to Oregon, where Mires remained until 1874. In 1880, he moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to study law. After graduation in 1882, he was admitted to the Oregon bar and was elected chief of the Senate of the Oregon legislature. In 188,,, he moved to Ellensburg and upon the town being incorporated February 26, 1885, was elected as Mayor. In addition to serving two terms as Mayor he was City Attorney, City Treasurer, Prosecuting Attorney, and delegate to both the Admission and Constitutional Conventions of Washington. The existing note was saved by Mires' daughter who died two years ago; it was willed to the present owner (who wishes to remain anonymous). A few other items from Mires' personal diary: Elected as Mayor of Ellensburg. Elected Vice-president of Ellensburg National Bank. Appointed as delegate to Admission (State) Convention. Elected as delegate to Constitutional Conven- tion. Most of Ellensburg burns down. Same time that Mires was in Olympia attending the Constitutional Convention. State of Washington is admitted to the Union. Sold bank stock. No longer vice-president. (Bank was liquidated two years later due to incompetent management.) President Roosevelt in Ellensburg. Elected Prosecuting Attorney. Washington was a Territory from March 2, 1853 until November 10, 1889. Ellensburg was founded by John Shoudy, who was born in Rock Island County, Illinois. Shoudy served the Union Army during the Civil War. He lived in California and Seattle through 1871, then moved to the Kittitas Valley and bought out a small trad- ing merchant for trading with the 12 to 14 settlers hav- ing families. In 1885, there were four general stores, each having a stock of $25,000 to $40,000. Shoudy took out a preemption claim, a Soldier's Homestead Claim (each 160 acres ), and having purchased another 160 acres, laid out the town of Ellensburg, naming it after his wife, Mary Ellen Stewart of Kentucky, whom he married in 1867. As to the Bank of Ellensburg, 825 sheets of Brown Backs were printed. The sheets were $5-5-5-5 and car- ried bank serial numbers 1 through 825. It is not known how many of these notes were actually issued or whether part of these were issued as a state. This quiet community of 13.000 is situated at a moun- tain base in south-central Washington not far from Wenatchee, the apple capital of the world. This author wishes to express deep gratitude to the present owner for the loaning of the note to the SPMC for this article.

Daniel Many stories about the state banking era tell about wildcat banks, carpetbaggers, red dog or bull pup notes and banks located at some crossroads in a New Jersey swamp or Michigan woods. Banks of deposit and issue were new on the business scene and it was many years before guidelines for operation and safeguards for de- positors and holders of bank notes were written into law. In the meantime banking attracted more than its share of crooks and sharpers with the rustle of bank notes and the smell of profit. This story is different. The banking law passed by the New York State Legislature in 1838 may be con- sidered a model banking law. Known popularly as the Free Banking law, it provided state control and registra- tion of the issue of bank notes: state bonds became se- curity only for circulating notes. The securing of all bank liabilities, often to the exclusion of circulation, as provided in the Safety Fund law of 1829, had proved impractical and was eliminated in the 1838 law. The earlier law remained in effect for banks still operating under their earlier-dated charters. Asking stamp dealers for numismatic material is usu- ally unfruitful but upon occasion something interesting turns up. The dealer said he had some old letters which included several ordering notes from one of the bank note companies. Very interesting. When the lot ar- rived, it consisted of stampless covers from the 1830s to 1850s, philatelically of very little value, but 40 of the letters related directly to bank notes and several others to allied matters. Stampless covers are double sheets of stationery used before postage stamps were introduced in 1847 and for a time thereafter. The message was written on the inside leaf; when folded and sealed with wax the outer sheet became the envelope. A city postmark similar to a dated cancellation was applied along with the fee paid, or to be paid, and sometimes a mark "Paid." All the covers are addressed to the Comptroller of the State Banking Department. Albany, suggesting they were salvaged from destruction when the files were cleaned out some time ago. The fact that all have New York City postmarks means they are the leavings; the goodies from the small towns are scattered throughout many stamp collections. The information contained in those letters could add much to our knowledge of New York bank notes. (Figure 1.) It became apparent from reading the letters that the operation of the office of the comptroller was identical to the duties of the United States Comptroller of the Currency as established by the National Banking Act of 1863 for the issue of National Currency notes. The New York free banking law was. in fact, the model for the National Banking Act. So the Laws of the State of New York for 1838, Chap. 260. "An Act to authorize the business of banking," was consulted to put the letters in perspective. Details of the law were undoubtedly modi- fied during the more than 20 years the law was in effect; an Act of 1843 is cited in the letters and an exhibit is included. The following is a juxtaposition of the law. the letters and commentary seeking to develop a fictional example of the "life and working" of a free bank in New York state. Time law: #15. Any number of persons may associate to establish offices of discount, deposite (sic) and cir- culation, upon the terms and conditions, and subject to the liabilities prescribed in this act; but the aggregate amount of the capital stock of any such association shall not be less than one hundred thousand dollars. The law: #16. Such persons, under their hands and seals, shall make a certificate which shall specify: 1. The name assumed to distinguish such association, and to be used in its dealings: 2. The place where the operations of discount and deposite (sic) of such association are to be carried on, designating the particular city, town or village: 3. The amount of the capital stock of such association, and the number of shares into which the same shall be divided: 4. The names and places of resi- dence of the shareholders, and the number of shares held by each of them respectively : 5. The period at which such association shall commence and terminate; which certificate shall be proved or acknowledged and recorded in the office of the clerk of the county where any office of such association shall be established, and a copy thereof filed in the office of the secretary of state. The law thus permitted any group of individuals to form a bank without receiving a charter from the state legislature if they met the requirement of deposit of state stocks to secure their notes and other conditions. That this permitted some inept persons to enter banking is beyond question—but their circulation, at least, was secured. The following letter from the White Plains Bank was written on the unused sheet of a letter from the comp- troller asking for more information on the bank. The comptroller's letter has disappeared. White Plains, Augt 8th 1844 Mr. Azariah C. Flagg Sir As I perceive by the law that I am required to give the names of any persons that may be directly or In- directly concerned in the Institution of mine, and as I am not fully advised as to whether it should be embodyed (sic) in the report, or simply by a statement, in letter, I now Say: that as President, I am Concerned.

The White Plains Bank was in operation for ten years but moved to Yorktown in May, 1849, and to Naples in December, 1849, before suspending in 1854. Its begin- ning foreshadowed its course, because as early as May 8, 1846, 5607 of the bank's circulation was protested for non-payment I a part of the law dealt with later). The bank obviously made the notes good within ten days or it could not have remained in business as long as it did. The law: #17.

Collier Comptroller &c Sir— We have recently had conversation with Mr. E. Watson of Albany, on the subject of his invention for preventing the alteration of notes. The plan itself is simple, & if carried out with skill in the execution, would no doubt add to the security of the notes, in respect to alterations. We have thought it proper to say that if you should wish to adopt this principle in the notes for the Free Banks, we would have pleasure in preparing the necessary work, & our Medallion work ap- pears peculiarly adapted to carry out his design. In place of the proposals which we handed you on the 14th. Sept. we wish to substitute the following, which we trust will be more satisfactory to yourself, & better for the Banks & public for whose interest you labour. We propose to furnish any or all the denominations on steel plates at $300. for four notes, and as the Banks now in operation have procured 2, 3 &c we will unite those denominations on a plate with the Ones when ever re- quired, & charge only for the ones. We confidently believe that our work would be done in a manner to meet your approbation, and if the terms we now propose should not be entirely satisfactory, we will engage to make them so, & to undertake the work on at least as favorable conditions as may be offered by any respectable Engravers. Very Respectfully Your Obt. Servant Danforth, Underwood & Co. Danforth, Underwood & Co. operated from 1839 to 1843; the firm then became Underwood, Bald.

The plates, dies and materials to be procured by the comptroller, for the printing and mak- ing of the circulating notes provided for hereby, shall remain in his custody and under his direction; and the expenses necessarily incurred in executing the provisions of this act. shall be audited and settled by the comptroller, and paid out of any moneys in the treasury not other- wise appropriated; and for the purpose of reimbursing the same, the said comptroller is hereby authorized and required to charge against and receive from such person or association applying for such circulating notes, such rate per cent thereon as may be sufficient for that pur- pose, and as may he just and reasonable.

George Wait was consulted about this unusual denomination and commented, "$14 bills are extremely rare. In fact, I think this is the first I have seen. The Commercial Bank of the City of New York was chartered in 1834 with a capital of $500,000 and closed in 1842. According to D. C. Wismer, it issued notes in $11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 500 and 1,000 denominations." The note shown here was printed by Rawdon, Wright and Hatch and features a "topless" classical vignette by Freeman Rawdon. A faint marking at the lower left reveals the name of James D. Smillie, famed bank note artist. It is followed by a number, indicating perhaps that it was applied by an archivist. A Personal Note and an Invitation While doing research for an article on New York notes and the engravers thereof, I was directed by the librarian of the Numismatic Museum in New York to the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. I was told that it possessed a large collection of notes, engravings, proofs and other data housed unobtrusively in the Rare Print Room. Entrance to the room is by special card given to those engaged in some research or inquiry. I was passed and given a card. When I described the things that I was seeking to Mrs. Dianne O'Neal and Miss Elizabeth Roth, the Curator, they were both overjoyed that at long last some- one would be looking at the treasures that are hidden away on their shelves. They told me that during the past years no one, with the possible exception of itinerant advertising men in search of period illustrations, had used the enormous amount of material available. They first brought out a series of volumes that must contain a copy of every vignette that was ever used on obsolete notes and then a large folio which contains more vignettes and a whole section devoted only to proofs. As I turned page after fascinating page, my eyes popped and my lips drooled at the fantastic material displayed. Then to cap the climax there in all its glory lay the $14 proof. I had known from the Wismer listing that there was supposed to be such an "animal," but I had never seen it nor known anyone who had. I im- mediately asked Mrs. O'Neal how we could have it photo- graphed, and before I left the library that day she had made arrangements. I later discussed the lack of use of this room with Miss Roth, and she said that the only person whom she knew to have really made use of all this magnificent material was the late Doctor Blanchard, one time vice- president of SPMC and president of The Essay-Proof Society. Since he has gone, it has not been used at all. She and her staff asked me to extend to all numismatists an invitation to use the Rare Print Room when in New York. I can vouch for the fact that any visit there will be most rewarding and a real "sight" to see in the city. HOWARD S. BARON An article in the April 1971 issue of Japanese Philately about Matsuda Atsutomo, designer and printer of Japan's first postage stamps, contains information of numismatic interest as well.

Cooper The Confederate Treasury Department began life on a very modest basis, occupying an unpretentious one-room office with borrowed furniture. The only operating funds were those in the pockets of the civil servants assigned the Department. Congress quickly authorized on March 9, 1861 the printing of one million dollars in paper currency to fund the operations of the embryo govern- ment. The currency, when received from the northern bank note printers, required hand-signing by A. B. Clitherall as Register and E. C. Elmore as Treasurer of the Confederate States. As with all aspects of the Treasury Department, this hand-signing task very quickly expanded into an impossible chore for its important mem- bers. To meet this difficulty they quickly assigned gentle- men in the Department who were rapid in the use of the pen and whose signatures were most unusual to the task of placing their signatures on the increasing mass of paper money. A Mr. John Ott was placed in charge of those signing for the Treasurer and a Mr. Clarence Thayer supervised those signing for the Register (21. As time progressed and most able-bodied men were taken by the military, this assignment was assumed by the patriotic Southern ladies. Congress continually studied the practicality of printing the signatures on the cur- rency but, with one exception, never authorized deviation from the hand-signed notes. Of all the autographs on such currency, the boldest and most distinctive appeared on some of the 1861-issued notes. The fine, distinctive Spencerian signature, an anachronism in today's world of haste, was a cherished accomplishment in the mid-nineteenth century. An ex- ample was the distinctive cramped signature of F. E. Spinner appearing on the Fractional Currency issued by the United States. A northern army officer, Colonel Drake DeKay, achieved recognition early in the war for the very bold signature which he used to sign travel passes for those traveling out of Washington (1). The Confederate signature of C. C. Thayer, who super- vised those signing for the Treasury Register, rivaled that of Colonel DeKay. The hold, flowing signature of Thayer is found on all denominations of the July 25, 1861 and September 2, 1861 issues of currency. It is found covering over half the width of the note and was distinctive enough to discourage even the boldest counter- feiter, it was believed. Judging from the period these notes were released, Mr. Thayer was engaged at the least from October 22, 1861 through May 12, 1862 or at the most from July 25, 1861 through December 8, 1862. Regardless of the time period, he really does not disap- pear but only fades into the background yet to provide an interesting part of the history of Confederate cur- rency. Indirectly, he appears again in a role not previously recognized and makes an ancillary contribution to Con- federate numismatic history. The enigmatic $20 pseudo- Confederate note widely known to collectors for its vignette of a "Female Riding a Deer" becomes a part of the examination behind this bold signature. (See Appendix I.) The origin of this $20 note, bearing a legitimate issue date of July 25, 1861, has long intrigued collectors. At one time it was considered a genuine note of the Southern government (6). Subsequently, experts have agreed that it is sheer fabrication and have labeled it as "bogus" but a worthwhile part of any collection of Confederate currency. Now, observe closely that this bogus $20 note carries a poor imitation of the bold flow- ing autograph of C. C. Thayer! But, alas, the imitator was deceived and made the signature read C. C. Shayer. But by such trivia the fabric of history is woven. The articulate students of paper money history have only agreed that this note is truly bogus and probably printed in the North. All the prominent cataloguers have in- cluded it in their listings (Appendix I). A survey of PAGE 156 Paper Money WHOLE NO. 40 Enlargement of genuine C. C. Thayer signature the attributed source of the note by a number of writers is of interest: Allen (6) Bogus but no source indicated. Chase (3) Bogus with no source indicated but attributes the printed back as of a post-war vintage. Criswell (12) Bogus, not printed by S. C. Upham but possibly printed in Ohio. Slabaugh (13) Bogus, printed in the North. Glaser (4) A fabricated note; a copy came into hands of Samuel Upham who made thousands of copies. With this thread of the incorrect C. C. Thayer signa- ture, we can endeavor to weave a fabric of probable fact. The infamous S. C. Upham of Philadelphia, the enterprising producer of souvenir Confederate money and stamps, prepared as his second rebel souvenir note a copy of a $10 July 25, 1861 "Liberty seated by eagle" note (Criswell T-10). In a post-war letter Mr. Upham relates, "This note was first engraved by Frank Leslie, of New York, and printed in his 'Illustrated Newspaper' in March 1862." The interesting point about this specific note, which was an artist's sketch and not a photographic reproduction, was the error in the C. C. Thayer signature which was reproduced as C. C. Shayer. The same signature error as repeated on the bogus $20 "Female Riding a Deer" note! Mr. Sam Upham made two other interesting statements in his post-war confession. First, he asserts. "None of the designs of the notes were original with me." Also, he records, "In the year 1863, two individuals in New York (Haney & Hilton, the former deceased) copied several of my facsimile notes" (3) (4) (14). Collectors today are aware that this $20 phantasy note is found both with and without the usual S. C. Upham imprint and on a wide variety of papers. Advertise- ments by Upham in newspapers of the period indicate that he offered a variety of papers 13 I (15 ). Now let's try weaving together a story of this famous mystery note based on a few threads of fact: Public interest in the North in the early war period was keen for rebel souvenirs, including their paper cur- rency. Upham had tasted this popularity with the clamor for his first souvenir publication. To continue this commercial success while the public appetite was strong required another specimen Confederate note for publica- tion. However, the legitimate product was quite scarce in the North. Therefore, Upham employed the Frank Leslie artist, used the same note format, including the same signatures, changed the denomination and vignettes, and quickly produced another note with the look of authenticity. The "Female Riding a Deer" phantasy note was born as an Upham souvenir. The vignette chosen was, apparently, a stock item for job printers and has appeared on a number of legitimate notes of the Civil War period. (Appendix II I The notorious Haney & Hilton made their pirated edition and gave it wider circulation but without the Upham margin imprint "FAC-SIMILE CONFEDERATE NOTES SOLD, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL, BY S. C. UPHAM, 403 CHESTNUT STREET, PHILADELPHIA." Thus, his- tory was given a minor mystery to savor and contemplate and our Mr. C. C. Thayer, nee Shayer, was further committed to posterity. The original intent of using bold distinctive signa- tures, such as that of Thayer, was to foil the efforts of the counterfeiter. Alas, those plying that nefarious oc- cupation accepted the challenge and with mediocre effort made their imitations. including the forbidding Thayer Spencerian signature. Some notes observed with the false C. C. Thayer signature are: $10 July 25, 1861 Criswell T-10 Chase C1-109 $10 September 2, 1861 Criswell T-25 Chase C2-124 $20 September 2, 1861 Criswell T-19 Chase C1-132 $100 September 2, 1861 Criswell T-13 Chase C1-138 Mr. Clarence C. Thayer still is not to disappear from the annals of Confederate history. On July 24, 1863, rebel war clerk and diarist J. B. Jones recorded in his diary, "The Secretary of the Treasury sent an agent a WHOLE NO. 40 Paper Money PAGE 157 few weeks ago with some $12,000,000 for disbursement in the Trans-Mississippi country [i.e., west of the Missis- sippi River], but he has returned to this city [Rich- mond], being unable to get through. He will now go to Havana, and thence to Texas; and hereafter money will be manufactured at Houston, where a paper treasury will be established." (8) Jones at this entry date did not identify the agent but later (March 25, 1864) identi- fied him as C. C. Thayer. The printing of paper money in Houston is also intriguing; an entry in the same diary on November 23, 1863 reads, "Mr. Memminger has sent a press to the Trans-Mississippi country, to issue paper money there." Treasury Agent Thayer sailed from Wilmington, North Carolina. on October 12, 1863, with a "very large amount of public funds," approximately $15 to $16 million in paper money, destined for San Antonio, Texas, and Shreveport, Louisiana. He arrived in Havana on October 19th and departed the Cuban city on October 24th aboard a fast English schooner destined for Matamoras, Mexico. Thayer reported he arrived there on November 6, 1863, and, "I could not have arrived in a more inopportune time." Confederate military forces had just evacuated Brownsville, Texas, opposite Matamoras, and Federal forces entered the town on November 5th. This allowed Mexican rebels to invade Matamoras on the same date. All this the day prior to the arrival of Clarence Thayer with his millions! and Company had recently purchased two other local trading firms and along with the acquisition acquired some large contested debts with the Confederate govern- ment for supplies provided to the Confederate army. On December 17, 1863, Agent Thayer was shocked to receive a letter from Patricio Milmo advising "that I will hold the contents of the seven cases of Confederate property now in my hands as security for the total amount due to me here and in Matamoras." (10) Along with this Milmo seized 600 bales of cotton belonging to the Con- federacy. Eloquent persuasion with Milmo and his father-in-law failed to yield results. It was apparent that the secrecy requested by Thayer of Major Russell as to the contents of the cases was not respected and Milmo was made aware of them. Major General E. Kirby Smith, military commander of the Trans-Mississippi Department, took action to seal off the Mexican border to the flow of all commercial transactions. This threat to the economy of the Mexican state achieved results, and the currency was released to continue its journey into the Trans-Mississippi. Agree- ment was also made to provide equitable settlement of the accounts due P. Milmo and Company. The exposure of the malfeasance of Major Russell in the commercial transactions for which he represented the Confederate government, including the divulging the contents of the seven cases, resulted in the Secretary of War relieving him from duty. It is interesting to note that "in the last year of hos- tilities, some counterfeit currency was made in Havana, Cuba and having run the blockade entered the Con- federacy at Mobile or passed through Matamoras, Mexico into the Trans-Mississippi Department" (7) traveling in the same direction as this purloined shipment.

Wheeler chose a timely theme for an invitational exhibit at the Detroit Historical Museum during July and August 1971. He displayed notes signed by black Registers of the U. S. Treasury. Five black men served as Registers of the Treasury, four of whose signatures appear on the U. S. currency. The five men were: Blanche K. Bruce, Register from 1881 to 1885; Judson W. Lyons, Register from 1898 to 1906; William T. Vernon, Register from 1906 to 1911; James C. Napier, Register from 1911 to 1913; and Louis T. Boomer, Register from 1953 to 1956. (On all small-size notes as on the large Federal Reserve Notes of 1914, the Register's name no longer appears but is replaced by the signature of the Secretary of the Treasury, the highest official of the Department. Today the Secretary's signature is on all currency, along with that of the Treasurer. While the office of Register is still in existence, the Register's name no longer is dis- played on currency. The notes were displayed in a "U" shape, with the first wall carrying the title and copy about the duties of the Registers. Glass cases on the other walls housed the notes themselves, with one case for each of the original signers and five notes to the case. Out of the 20 notes shown, 12 were personally autographed by one of the original signers of that note, whether it be the Register or the Treasurer, as the authorized printed signature appearing on the note. Some of these auto- graphed notes are considered unique and carry such impressive provenances as the Farran Zerbe, Colonel Green, George Blake, Albert Grinnell, James M. Wade and L. S. Werner collections. Each of the four cases carried the name of the Register featured, a portrait, and a biographical sketch, plus notes of each signature combination with the U. S. Treasurer with whom each man served. Each note was individually described, directly below, as to the series, denomination and other important information for the viewer. Mr. Wheeler has consented to write an article for PAPER MONEY embodying the biographies and pictures of these black Registers. D. J. Levitt Donates Photographs to SPMC Treasurer M. Owen Warns reports that member David J. Levitt has presented our Society with an album con- taining a complete set of photos of number one sheets of the 1929-1935 National Bank Note issues, one from each of the then 48 states during the period of issue. Mr. Levitt also presented two additional albums of other number one sheets containing 141 more photos of this issue, resulting in a combined total of 188 sheet photos. The Society is indeed grateful for this invalu- able gift of these albums, which it will preserve for use in research studies. In passing, we might also mention that David Levitt was signally honored in having been appointed to serve as a member of the 1971 annual assay commission. Virginian, Pr. H. Barry, Pr.

WHOLE NO. 40 Paper Money PAGE 1 59 The $100 Partially Turned Digit Error Set By Lee Worthley The accompanying photograph shows a most remark- able find, a set of eight $100 notes showing a complete error happening and then correcting itself. Paper money is always printed with the higher serial numbers first. so that the finished sheets come off the press in numerical order. And on 32-subject sheets, there are two serial numbering devices per note, making a total of 64 for each sheet. On this particular run, one of these serial number registers became defective for a total of five sheets. thus causing one note in each of these sheets to be printed in error. All the notes have the same check letter, A4, denoting the same position from each of the sheets it came from. Page 103 of Shafer's guide book shows the position of this note on the printed sheet. Partially turned digit notes are a relatively scarce error, and once in the process, can turn into mismatch serial number notes. Mine is not such the case, although I wish it were. Also, the examiners have to look at notes very hard in order to spot these small-size errors, as compared with offsets and creases. In addition, this error was only on five notes and did not continue on with hundreds of notes as is usually the case. The explanation of this error is that when note #830 was advancing to #829, some dirt or other foreign matter was caught between the "8" and the "3." As the number changed, the "8" was pulled with the "3" causing the top of the "7" to show. Then the partially turned digit at- tempted to right itself, as evidenced by the fact the error is less pronounced as the serials move along. Finally on note #824, the printing returned to normal and continued on that way until the end of the run. The amazing thing is that the error corrected itself without any human help whatsoever and printing of normal notes continued. This type of error normally does not correct itself, and usually the press has to be shut down, upon discovery, and cor- rected. Hundreds of these errors can be made before correction. Did this error happen again when #820 was printed and then moved to #819? My opinion is that it did not. While I have no further notes to substantiate this, I feel that as the error did correct itself, the foreign matter no longer was a problem. Many thanks go to Peter Huntoon for his knowledge in helping to explain how this error happened.

The head of Holbein's "Sixteenth-Century Banker" appears twice on it. Hans Holbein, the younger, 1497-1543, a German painter, and son of Hans Holbein, the elder, was born at Augsburg. He received his lessons from his father who was also a painter. In early life he designed title page blocks and initials for new editions of the Bible and classics issued from the various presses at the time. Some of his best-known works are "The Flagellation" and "Last Supper," executed in 1519; "Madonna and St. Pantalus;" and "Kaiser Henry with the Empress Kuni- gunde," done in 1522. To the world of finance his most notable painting is "A Sixteenth-Century Banker" pic- tured below. The head of the banker appears also on two Reichsbank notes issued in 1923 during the hyper- inflation which engulfed Germany at the time. A Review The Legal and Military Aspects of German.

Banyai has scored again with a marvelous monograph that should be in the personal library of every collector of world paper currency. This multi-lith, 8 1/0x11. soft- bound, 121-page volume contains excellent reproduc- tions of all the paper money used in the European areas overrun by Hitler together with useful maps and interesting photos. The interest in the Third Reich and concern for basic monetary policy which is increasing daily in America will be well served by Mr. Banyai's study. It is divided into three sections: military occupation and the issue of military currency in international law; legal and military aspects of German money, banking and finance 1938-45; and banking and monetary reconstruction in Germany under Allied military occupation 1945-48. Anyone who has traveled in post-war Germany will be fascinated by the comparison of contemporary conditions with those described by Mr. Banyai, and everyone can learn from the German experience vis-a-vis his own financial future.

The steady growth of our So- ciety's membership bears mute testimony to that fact. Further evidence of this may be observed in the forma- tion. less than two years ago. of the Check Collectors' Round Table. devoted primarily to the study of such items as they pertain directly to banks. Earliest of the banking institutions in America was the Bank of Pennsylvania, created at a coffee-house meeting in Philadelphia, on June 7, 1780. The bank was opened for business on July 7th, but despite the slowly expanding need for such facilities and the great assistance it rendered in keeping the Continental Army equipped in the field until the cessation of hostilities, it was forced to close after having been in operation but a year and a half. Liquidation finally took place in 1784. The more renowned Bank of North America, the first and only bank chartered by the Continental Congress (on December 31. 1781). opened for business January 7, 1782. In 1864, the bank merged with the Pennsylvania Company for Insurance on Lives and Granting Annuities. which had opened in 1812. Today the institution is familiarly known as the First Pennsylvania Bank, largest in Philadelphia. Together through the years, as the privately created currencies of the many banks came into greater use, and later laid aside as no longer having any monetary value. the certain use of checks attended those bank currencies. An interesting aspect of collecting these ob- solete currencies has been the matching of die proof vignettes, as prepared for use on the paper money. with specific notes on which such were employed. Many designs were made up for a specific customer, while others were incorporated into salesmen's sample books to demonstrate to prospective customers the high quality of the engraving art. Plates which originated with one of the early firms were often used later when such firm was absorbed into mergers that occurred so often to form the "Association," resulting in the American Bank Note Company. Some few instances exist where it is possible to match the die proofs with currency as well as the vignettes on checks. The Continental Bank Note Company created the design of a woman wearing a star in her headdress. known as the "Star of the West." This appeared on the $1 note of the Macon & Brunswick Railroad, Georgia, in 1867. The same vignette later made its appearance in 1879, on checks designed by the Western Bank Note & Engraving Company, Chicago. for the Union Bank of Abingdon, Illinois, on revenue-stamped blue paper. Nu- merous popular designs were thus copied by various other lithographing and printing firms. The die proof of Samuel Dexter shown here. provides an excellent illustration of this association of checks with T. Hoober currency. as used on the 50c Fractional Currency note of the Fourth Issue, design No. 186, according to Fried- berg. The design was created by the Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing, Washington, D. C. This identical vignette appears on the check issued by the Assistant Treasurer of the United States, dated 1884, also shown here. The check was printed from an en- graved plate in red and black, on paper containing silk threads in red and blue, some of which can faintly be noted in the vignette of Dexter. The amount of the check for three cents, and the written comment, "Import Re- fund," causes one to wonder for just what refund the check was drawn !

Since the monograph was written in 1943, many new products for the preserva- tion of records have been introduced; nevertheless, much of the information is timeless and still applicable.

Nos. 1-4, 6 Boise's Paper Pennies By Cliff Murk Shortly after the beginning of World War II, the United States was plagued with a penny shortage. Many localities "toughed it out" but not so Boise, Idaho. The merchants' division of their Chamber of Commerce sent out a plea to raid the piggy banks— "get those pennies into circulation." This idea was not successful. so their next move was to make pennies of their own. Their decision finally centered upon a lithographed design produced by the Beacon Litho Company. The paper cent is one inch wide and 3 1/16 inches high. The design is in blue and is identical on both obverse and re- verse. The need for these cents was urgent, so the acceptance by the stores, banks, government offices, etc. was favor- able. Records of the total number printed have been lost; however, they were produced in lots of 100,000 at a time. It is estimated that possibly a couple of million were printed. The Chamber of Commerce planned the issue of cents as a circulating medium for the Boise area, but they soon found that its fame had spread over all the state. It was then that orders for lots of a hundred or more at a time began to come in. The larger banks around the country bought them, presumably to give to friends and cus- tomers. Thus the cents found their way into collections as they still circulated and worked at home. A date of redemption for the cents was imprinted upon them; it was estimated to be the war's end. This was a bit optimistic and premature, as that date was predicted to be June 1, 1943. As we know all too well, the war ended about two years later. All proceeds from the sale of these cents were placed in a savings account against the redemption date. It was well that this was done, because the Treasury Department sent a directive stating that if the printing of these cents wasn't stopped, the Attorney General would be directed to insti- gate a court action. Later when circulation didn't stop, the local U. S. Attorney wrote explanations for the cents' issuance, and pointed out that the money was being de- posited in a trust account against a pre-specified redemp- tion date and that the Chamber intended to print pennies until the government issued theirs in such an amount that the shortage would be eliminated. The senators of the state were so notified, and they interceded for the Chamber so that the federal intervention was dropped. When the government finally caught up with the penny situation and new pennies arrived in Boise in quantities sufficient to serve the community, the Chamber advertised that the paper pennies would be redeemed and retired. Imagine the surprise of the Chamber officials when they found that a five-dollar bill would redeem all that were turned in and even leave some change. Out of the hundreds of thousands printed. an insignificant four PA skt al.17,0,LEtYzidg Iso-oxsa9 i n/. //e /t/III.1 14i v,K4/.% /hi 4#/e/irth, Arrevelt PERIM ATE OF DEPOSIT WHOLE NO. 40 Paper Money PAGE 165 hundred or so came back. The money left over in the trust account was used for the community's benefit. During the Great Depression, many unique and novel materials were used for emergency scrip, such as the fish skin of San Juan, Washington. the buckskin of Enterprise. Oregon, the sheepskin of Heppner, Oregon, the leather money of Albany, Oregon, and the oyster money of Olympia, Washington, and the one that started them all off, the wooden bills of Tenino. Washington. These all circulated very well in a local manner. They also re- Moingona Bank was Never Opened By Larry Adams Here is a bit of history about the two items pictured, a check and certificate of deposit on the Moingona Bank —proposed but never opened. Moingona is a small settlement south of Boone, Iowa. In the late 1800's it was a prosperous coal mining town, located on the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad. At one time it was incorporated, but since the mines shut down and the railroad was taken out. all that remains there today is a church building and a few houses. In the 1870's, Phillip Livingston proposed a bank there, the Moingona Bank. He went so far as to have the plans drawn up and checks and certificates of deposit printed. His plans failed to materialize. and he never got the bank open. It is indeed a rare occurrence when this happens and few checks and certificates of deposit are saved to document it. turned a nice profit to the communities issuing them, but none did so well as the penny that necessity demanded be printed and which circulated the length and breadth of the lower Snake River district of Idaho performing yeo- man's service. Author's Note: Much of the foregoing information was furnished or verified by Mr. Ned Harlan of Boise, Idaho, who was the manager of the Boise Chamber at the time these events took place. I thank him on behalf of the Society for the courtesy extended. HARD-COVER REPRINTS OF THE CELEBRATED ALBERT A.

BOX 10144-P, KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI 64111 BOB MEDLAR Presents GREAT CLASSICS IN PAPER MONEY I do not recall having seen within the past ten years any offerings of the really rare and pedigreed notes that might compare in quality and quantity with those listed here. The owner pur- chased many of these from Mr. W. A. Philpott, Jr., over the past 25 or so years and refused to sell them during Mr. Phil's lifetime. These notes so indicated are singularly choice to the point where the famed Philpott quality readily shows. I INTEREST BEARING NOTES 1LEGAL TENDER NOTES $2, Series 1869, Allison-Spinner, Fr. 42. This is the only note with the three styles of $2 on the re- verse. In choice Uncirculated, much rarer than generally realized. This a very choice crisp new note with one minute corner fold. $400. $5, Series 1907, Napier-Thompson, Fr. 86. The beautiful wocdchopper Family vignette, with a sig- nature combination possible for only four months and 9 days. CUT SHEET of 4 crisp uncirculated notes cataloguing at $475. each, but to keep a very spectacular group together, the four for $1,450. $20, Series 1869, Allison-Spinner, Fr. 127. Large red seal and the large "XX" on reverse. Crisp uncir- culated and a rare type. Ex Philpott. $1,200. $20, Series 1878, Allison-Gilfillan, Fr. 129. Small red seal with rays. A most desirable specimen and very difficult to locate in this Very Fine condition. $575. $50, Series 1863, Chittenden-Spinner, Fr. 150. "Second Obligation - on reverse. A Crisp Uncirculated beauty, seldom offered or seen, especially in this magnificent state of preservation. From Philpott Collection. $2,500. $50, Series 1869, Allison-Spinner, Fr. 151. Only 24 notes reported as outstanding on the Treasury Books. An Extremely Rare type note, Fine condition, marred only by a small 1/4" tear at left. $1,450. $50, Series 1869, Allison-Spinner, Fr. 151. Same va- riety, except this is for the most discriminating col- lector or museum. A beautiful crisp uncirculated note as choice as the day it was printed. Again a Philpott note. $4,000. $50, Series 1874, Allison-Spinner, Fr. 152. Benj. Franklin and Liberty. Almost Extra Fine but perhaps a bit close to Very Fine, rare. $950. $100, Series 1863, Chittenden-Spinner, Second Obliga- tion, Fr. 167. An extremely rare note in the ulti- mate condition, Crisp Uncirculated. Believed unique in this condition. Ex Philpott $3,000. $100, Series 1875, Allison-New, Fr. 169. Floral de- sign in red. Very Fine. A rare and very much underrated note, only three known. $850. $1,000, Series 1880, Lyons-Roberts, Fr. 187-j. An excessively rare note in Fine state of preservation. A beautiful note but unfortunately, it has numerous pin holes at left vignette which should be repaired. The opportunity to secure a similar specimen may not again present itself for another generation. $3,000. $20, 1865, Fr. 191. A beautiful note in Extra Fine condition, quite possibly the finest known speci- men, all of which have seen circulation. Very, very rare. $1,250. $10, 1864, Fr. 196. Here is a nice, well-preserved specimen of this rare series. One small pinhole only detracts from the Fine condition. $1,100. $20, 1864, Fr. 197. This specimen is in a choice and desirable Fine condition and is possibly the finest known. It is difficult to estimate the value of such a rare note but it merits a place in a most select collection. $1,500. $500, 1864, Fr. 212-b. This is the note illustrated in Friedberg. Only a few ink spots mar an other- wise nearly Extra Fine specimen. We do not know of another specimen anywhere and the opportunity for some lucky collector to secure this note may never again present itself. Again from the personal collection of Mr. Philpott. $4,250. $50, 1864, Fr. 212-d. Only a very few notes remain in this entire series. Again an opportunity for some discerning collector to possess a note of unusual rarity. With some claim to Extra Fine, marred only by some minor stain at right center and two old ink spots, it is a fitting companion to the preceding note. $3,500. SILVER CERTIFICATES $1, Series 1899, Napier-Thompson, Fr. 231. This signature combination is the rarest of all, being in office together for only 4 months and 9 days. A very choice uncirculated specimen except for one tiny edge stain and one horizontal fold. $200. $2, Series 1891, Rosecrans-Nebeker, Fr. 245. Another choice Uncirculated note, very difficult to obtain in this superb state of preservation. $400. $2, Series 1899, Napier-Thompson, Fr. 254. A com- panion piece to the $1 above.

The Westport Currency Album consists of a deluxe, custom- made loose-leaf binder and page units designed to arrange, display and protect large and small-size paper money. Each page unit, except $1 FRN block number sets which are not illustrated, contains illustrated pages together with our superior crystal-clear plastic mounts. Pages of heavy, 80 lb. fine-finish soil resistant stock are crisply printed on one side only. Page units are available to house a wide variety of paper money as outlined below. Pages for specific sets of notes contain vital data on each issue such as series, signatures, years of issue, quantity produced and number of known block numbers. Exclusive, heavy-duty mounts are as easy to use as placing a stamp on an envelope. Once mounted with the full-length strip of self-adhering tape, the holder is permanently at- tached to the page but the bill it houses may be changed or viewed from front or back at will. Our custom made gold titled loose-leaf binder permits easy insertion or changing of pages which lie flat when the album is open. Contoured plastic sheet lifters guide pages as album is opened or closed. * descriptive price list is available upon request CURRENCY OFFERINGS FROM NORTH CAROLINA LARGE-SIZE TYPE NOTES Fr. #16 XF/AU $60.00 Fr. #29 CU 40.00 Fr. #40 CU 40.00 Fr. #40 CU Low #A417B 50.00 Fr. #41 VF/XF 70.00 Fr. #122 CU 110.00 Fr. #127 VF Rare 275.00 Fr. #220 VF 50.00 Fr. #256 Low N27 CU 55.00 Fr. #278 F/VF 37.00 Fr. #289 F/VF Rare 175.00 Fr. #363 CU Scarce 210.00 Fr. #710 VF 22.00 Fr. #717 VF/XF 17.00 Fr. #722 AU Star Note 75.00 Fr. #736 CU Scarce 90.00 Fr. #747 XF/AU 32.00 Fr. #749 VF 35.00 Fr. #780 AU Scarce 90.00 Fr. #896 VF (washed) 35.00 Fr. #898 CU Rare 125.00 Fr. #900 VF 45.00 Fr. #1200 Gold Note VG 65.00 FRACTIONAL TYPE NOTES Fr. #1226 VF $ 6.00 Fr. #1248 VF Rare 225.00 Fr. #1255 XF 6.00 Fr. #1259 UNC. 12.00 Fr. #1265 XF 3.50 Fr. #1266 XF 3.50 Fr. #1281 XF 12.00 Fr. #1294 XF 7.00 Fr. #1309 XF 5.00 Fr. #1381 AU/U 13 50 SMALL-SIZE CURRENCY D. #105-4 VF/XF Star Note $15.00 D. #105-6 XF 8.50 D. #105-7 XF 8.00 D. #201-7 AU 6.00 D. #R201 CU "Red 55.00 D. #S201 CU "Red S" 50.00 D. #205-1 CU 15.00 D. #205-4 CU 12.50 D. #205-1 CU Star Note 35.00 D. #210-5 CU 17.50 D. #210-9 CU 17.50 D. #410-F CU 25.00 D. #410-H CU 25.00 D. #505-3A CU 15.00 D. #505-6A CU 12.50 D. #505-7A CU 8.50 D. #505-9A CU 8.50 D. #520-51L CU 32.00 D. #520-7B CU 25.00 D. #520-7A CU 25.00 D. #610-1 CU 40.00 D. #650 CU 90.00 D. #H201 VF 6.00 NATIONALS NATIONALS NATIONALS Fr. #416 1875 Charter #1854 1st.

These notes are one of a kind, as they are from a research and reference collection. Each piece represents the finest that several years of seeking, and many lines of correspondence could acquire. All notes are signed and dated unless indicated by U/S=unsigned or U/D=undated. Much effort has been made to describe and price the notes accurately. All items are shipped postpaid, insured. Be sure and take advantage of the schedule of discount, which applies to this list only. Thank You and Good Luck, RICHARD J. BALBATON ALTON---Richmond Bank $1.

IF NOT - READ THE NEW BOOK GOLD COINS FOR FINANCIAL SURVIVAL BY W. W. TURNER Life Member A.N.A. Here is a new and timely book on the subjects of fiat money, gold and gold coins-224 pages (hard covers) with 69 pages of remarkable photo- graphs. Although gold was not one of man's necessities, it has fascinated him since the earliest times. This work covers the long history of gold and money and shows how to best collect and invest in gold coins. The world is now faced with a perennial monetary crisis. There will be those who will be wiped out financially and others who will profit from the confusion and unsettled monetary conditions. An in-depth knowledge of the underlying fundamentals of credit currency, gold and gold coins is absolutely essential to financial survival under such circumstances. Anyone who is interested in the subjects of gold and money will especially enjoy reading and studying this book. It is equally valuable for the dealer, collector and investor.

BOX 2283 PRESCOTT, ARIZ. 86301 Connecticut Proof Notes OBSOLETE CURRENCY It gives me exceptional pleasure to be able to offer the following excessively rare Connecticut proof notes: A Set of Eight Notes on the City Bank of New Haven The bank was incorporated in May 1831, opened for business in June 1832, and finally merged with the National New Haven Bank in August 1915. The notes no doubt represent the first issue of the bank's notes. The denominations are: $1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100. Each piece has various allegorical representations and a view of the Village Green in New Haven. Seldom if ever does such an op- portunity arrive to purchase a set of Proof Notes such as these, from any bank, any state. They carry the imprint of Draper, Underwood, Bald & Spencer, and N&S.S Jocelyn. They are affixed to paper from an old album page. The price is only $1,000.00 RICHARD J.
