| Anmerkungen |
The Bank of the Valley in Virginia was chartered in 1817 and operated primarily out of Winchester, serving the Shenandoah Valley agricultural economy. Danforth, Underwood & Co. — active in New York through the late 1830s and early 1840s before merging into the American Bank Note Company lineage — produced work for dozens of state-chartered banks during this period, and their plates were frequently shared or adapted across multiple institutions.
The Haxby G4 designation confirms this as a genuine-issue type rather than a remainder or altered note, a distinction that matters for this bank: altered notes from defunct Southern institutions were rampant in circulation by the 1840s, and Valley notes were not immune to counterfeiters working the Winchester-to-Baltimore trade routes.
