Description

Jacksonville, FL- Bank of St. Johns $3 Mar. 1, 1862 Benice 17 PMG Choice Fine 15.
This was the largest denomination of this series of Certificates of Deposit issued by the bank shortly before it decamped to Lake City, FL in the face of increased military activity near Jacksonville. With a vignette of a Native American woman shielding her eyes at left, it is the only issue from this series to have a vignette. While the note has seen time in circulation it is still a pleasant appearing note with no meaningful distractions. Benice estimates a surviving population of 13-30 notes of this denomination.
