numismatist6 Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 1:31 pm I have one of the Criswell 4A notes. It has a vertical stamp on the center of the reverse "Prior to 1st, Nov'br 1861." Anyone have any idea what this is for being that the note was issued on 1st January 1862 on the obverse. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4691 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 7:14 pm Good question. Can't really tell, perhaps you can provide a larger image of the stamp. It is likely a stamp from the bank that redeemed the interest that was due, which I think is really cool. The holders of these notes were smart to redeem any interest that was owed them at the time, since the notes eventually went worthless. Thanks for posting. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatist6 Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 8:16 pm Here's a close up. Since the note's obverse says it was issued on January 1st 1862 and this stamp is 1861. Don't think interest is the issue. Report this Post to the Staff

jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4691 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 9:15 pm The more I think of it,it was probably issued prior to the date printed on it and to make it legal to issue had the back stamp on it. Report this Post to the Staff
