Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. The Bank of Phoenixville. July 1, 1861. $2. Very Good Fine.(PA-515 G4a) National Bank Note Company. Printed in black with red security inks. Portrait of Andrew Jackson at top left. Cattle farm and horseman at center with slaughter house in background. Vignette of a dog at bottom right. Phoenix at bottom center. Red TWO protector lower center. Ornate 2 dies at lower left and upper right. The first we have handled for this denomination and last offered in the Smythe 2004 Strasburg sale as lot 2925, lot tag included. The appeal of a Fine note is had but some minor edge and internal damage ultimately limit the grade. A very important opportunity for the Pennsylvania collector.
