Owner's Description

This is a nice mid-grade Sheridan Military Note from 1891, and features General Sheridan in full military uniform. General Sheridan served in the Union Army during the Civil War, and was instrumental in defeating General Lee's army and forcing his surrender at Appomattox. General Sheridan was also reviled for his scorched earth tactics in the battle at Shenandoah Valley. After the war, he was instrumental in the development and protection of Yellowstone National Park.

This Treasury Note, or coin note as it is sometimes called, promised to pay the bearer ten dollars in coins. Acquired in February 2013 (eBay).
