Thanks to a recent special purchase, you can now own a pristine $1 bank note issued by Vermont’s Bank of Windsor more than 180 years ago. This uniface large-size note is a prized early American collectible known as “obsolete currency”. Located in Windsor, VT (considered by many to be the Birthplace of Vermont), The Bank of Windsor began operating in 1818 and closed its doors in 1838. Windsor was first chartered as a town in 1761 – a full 30 years before Vermont’s statehood – and was a thriving community by the time the bank opened!
Issued in the 1830s, the $1 notes offered here are remainder notes (meaning they were never issued) but even still, they’re the nicest quality pieces of this type that our buyers have ever seen. Each note has been graded Gem Uncirculated, MS66 by our experts, and certified by PMG with the Exceptional Paper Quality (EPQ) designation. We have a limited number of these obsolete notes available, and once they’re gone, there’s no telling if – or when – we’ll be able to offer them again. It’s been more than 20 years since we were last able to feature these in a catalog, so order quickly to add one to your collection!
