East Liverpool, OH - $1 Original Fr. 382 The
<B>East Liverpool, OH</B></I> - $1 Original Fr. 382 <B>The First NB</B></I> Ch. # 2146<BR> A lovely serial number 1 Ace which is a mate to the serial number 1 example we sold from here in 2003 which realized over $16,000. Unlike that piece, which had some handling but was uncirculated, this piece has three folds, although the bright and vibrant appearance of the note indicates storage rather than circulation as the cause. It's one of just seven serial number 1 aces known from Ohio, and one of the finest in grade as well. Accompanying this lot is a letter with the printed return address of Cornelius P. Kitchel of New York. Scribed in ink, "First banknote issued by First National Bank of East Liverpool, Ohio." The next inscription in pencil is not as legible but starts with, "FD. Kitchel Cashier." <B>Extremely Fine.<BR></B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
