PANAMA RAIL ROAD CO. ONE DOLLAR NOTE
Here's another interesting note from Neil Shafer's "Money of the People" collection being auctioned by Lyn Knight.
-Editor
115 x 41mm. The Panama Rail Road Co. was a strong factor in the development of the canal beginning in 1907. John F. Stevens was heavily involved with the beginning of the canal project. His printed signature appears on the back of this 1 Dollar commissary note. Judging by wording on the piece, it was issued as part of a book of notes; I have never seen such a book or any other example of this $1 before. As little paper money from Panama is available, this great display item should engender considerable bidding. Fully original, signs of use but overall very attractive and of obvious rarity.
