Unlike several known proof examples (not intended ever to be issued) from this time period, this is an actual bond. As it is unissued, it is given the numismatic distinction of being a "remainder." It prominently features an engraving of not only the bald eagle at its top center, but representations of the States' seals as well. Printed by Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson of New York.
