Picked this up at an antique shop, but since I was unfamiliar with early banknotes, I accidentally overpaid by almost twice its value. What do you guys think?

Could you crop and rotate your pics? Looks like the pics are upside down and backwards?

Hope you don't mind TypeCoin971793, but I edited your pics for you so they are proper orientation.

I don't know much about Obsolete bank notes.

There are a few auction results on Heritage for this denomination http://currency.ha.com/c/search-res...#39094-24012

On one of the Heritage lots I looked at, it stated "this was a short lived bank in business from 1849 to 1854".

In the field of obsolete bank notes, $3 bills are not all that uncommon. But the denomination is always more in demand than $1s or $2s, just because of its novelty.

I like your note -- it's got some very nice engraved vignettes.
