An 1800s banknote from Frankfort, Kentucky, USA.

4 posts • viewed 110 times

Hello, I am trying to find information to make a catalog entry on this note (picture provided). It seems to be from the 1800s, and from the limited research I've done, Frankfort, Kentucky. I cannot find a direct year however, nor any information. It seems to have varieties with the letter in the top middle left, as you can find an A, B, and C in Google, mine being the former. The printing company seems to have existed from 1817-1820, per this site, but I haven't looked much deeper on it. This is all of the information I have about the note, and I'd appreciate more for an entry. Thanks! 😄

It's a promissory note.

So would a promissory note be welcome on the site? I didn't see any mention of it in the guidelines, and thank you for the welcome. This site is great.

It's a remainder (a leftover banknote which was never issued).
