Rare Bank of Monroe $1 with Oliver Cowdery Signature. $1 The Bank of Monroe, Monroe, MI. Oliver Cowdery Signature. Nyholm 38. PMG Choice Fine 15. Rust 19. S/N 6359. This is a nice Mormon note from Monroe Michigan bearing the strong signature of Oliver Cowdery (O. Cowdery). With the failure of the Kirtland bank the Mormon’s desired a legal bank so they purchased the Bank of Monroe for $100,000 and sent Cowdery to Monroe to become the bank’s President.
For those who collect signatures one of the more difficult to obtain of the early Mormons is that of Cowdery and the surviving notes from Monroe offer this additionally collectable option. Condition wise this note is commensurate with the assigned grade and for accuracy there is a small chip on the upper left corner.
Less than two dozen $1 notes known in all, but only a few with the Cowdrey signature.
