This is a complex series with two dated issues, many denominations, and a number of varieties. The issuer, Wolfred Nelson, is an interesting footnote character from this tumultuous period who allied himself with the "Patriote" rebels against the British crown. He was imprisoned for treason, then exiled to Bermuda, and later settled in the United States. After a nolle prosequi relieved him of fears of imprisonment, he returned to Canada, eventually becoming mayor of Montreal. This note is from the first issue and the highest denomination. Printed uniface by Louis Perrault, Montreal with the imprint line at the bottom, and dual-language text and denominations. At top center is a counter vignette of a United States Capped Bust half dollar coin reverse The denomination of HALF A DOLLAR is at the left end, and the right end shows the company name perpendicularly within ruled lines. Fully issued with three signatures and a handwritten counter-date lower left. Noted with "Minor Mounting Remnants on Back." Broadly margined and sharply printed. Representing several genres and themes, this is perfect for any Canadian or American currency collection. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

    Canada � W & J. Bell, Perth, Upper Canada 12 Pence or One Shilling Nov. 15, 1839 Graham ON10-10-06. PCGS Gem New 66PPQ. The Canadian paper scrip from the 1833-1845 Hard Times-era is often quite intriguing. These notes have been relatively neglected by American collectors, but they are underrated, and many are much scarcer than catalogs reveal. Often the notes are bi-lingual and multi-denominated, which adds to their appeal. The twin Bell brothers opened their successful general merchandise store in 1828, but the North American banking crisis and suspension of specie payments in 1837 sent it into debt and the company failed in 1846. Its five copper printing plates were discovered in 1980, and now are in the Canadian National Currency collection. This uniface type has a perpendicular vignette of the store at the left. The reverse of a British 1834 shilling at the right end serves as a counter for the illiterate. Fully signed and issued. In an exceptional grade for an issued note from the Bell twins. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. From Newman X (Heritage Auctions, November 2018), lot 20321, realized $204.
