Singapore, MI - Bank of Singapore $3 "Dec. 30, 1837" MI-420 G6, Lee SIN-1-3. Remainder. PCGS Choice About New 55 Apparent. An interesting $3 bill from this exotically named bank. A small vignette of Agriculture is at top center; a clipper ship at full sail is in a circular frame at the left end; Justice is at the right end between denomination counters; and the Rawdon, Wright & Hatch imprint is at lower right. Like all notes from the bank, this is falsely filled in, but done convincingly in the period. Noted with "Mounting Remnants and Minor Damage." Choice for this popular title and type. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20447, realized $408. |
