    Description

    Farmers Bank of Mount Joy PROPRIETARY PROOF! INSUFFICIENT INKING ERROR! RARE!. A really interesting note that is no doubt rare or even unique! This is a Proprietary Proof from The Farmers Bank of Mount Joy in Mount Joy, Pennsylvania. Proprietary Proofs were done by the American Bank Note Company in the 20th Century, and they are mainly for notes that you will have a very hard time obtaining. It makes it possible for the collector that wants the note for his collection to actually get it and pay maybe 0-0 versus getting the actual note and paying many hundreds or thousands of dollars! I am aware of no other surviving examples of this proof, so it is likely unique or nearly so. To make this note even better, it has an error! The printing press must not have had enough ink when it printed this note, because this is clearly an insufficient inking error! Because it does not have the pink ABNCo. stamp on it, I am pretty sure that what happened was that once they found out it was an error, they were going to destroy it. Somehow, it got out, however (maybe an employee snagged it and stored it safely for all these years...). The vignettes are absolutely stunning on this note! You will also see waves in the pictures from the paper being so crisp!!!! It would make a wonderful addition to any paper money collection, especially one that needs this note to complete a set of notes from this bank! Swipe it up now for cheap, because most Proprietary Proofs are graded and very expensive! A truly gorgeous example that could be yours...
