Owner's Description

I really like these Brown Backs. They are so different from the standard issue Green Backs. This one is special because it has the signature of the one and only J.P. Morgan (also known as Pierpont Morgan). He was recently profiled in the History Channel show "The Men Who Built America."

I acquired this note in the November 2012 Stacks/Bowers auction.
