RAILROAD  NOTES 

A number of independent railroads operated in Florida in the mid-19thlake wimico front1.png century and four of them issued their own currency.  They were the Florida Railroad which operated out of Fernandina, the Florida Atlantic & Gulf Central Railroad with headquarters in Jacksonville, the Tallahassee Rail Road with offices in the capitol city, and the Lake Wimico Canal & Railroad Company in St. Joseph.  While many Tallahassee Rail Road notes are generally available (beware of the many reproductions!), the notes issued by the others are usually difficult to obtain.  In fact, I have only seen one of the notes issued by the Lake Wimico Canal & Railroad Company, and I'm pleased to say that note, pictured here, is now in my personal collection.  We always have a good selection of railroad notes available.  Click here to view our current inventory:Rail Road Notes

BANK NOTES


Beginning in the years that Florida was was a territory, local banks issued their own currency notes to finance their operations.  Many of these notes still exist and they are highly collectible.  Since only the northern part of Florida was widely settled in those early years, bank notes originated in this region.  These notes vary widely in rarity and price.  We have many bank issues available for you're review.

OTHER OBSOLETES

In 19th century Florida, currency was issued by many other entities, including some local governments, merchants and companies.  With the exception of a few notes issued by the Corporation of Tallahassee, these notes are rare and highly sought by collectors.  We always offer some of these notes for sale.  To view them click:Other Obsoletes

  DEPRESSION SCRIP 

During the Great Depression of the 1930's, U.S. government currency was sometimes scarce.  To facilitate commerce during this shortage many banks, businesses and local  governmental agencies issued their own scrip.  This scrip was issued in limited quantities and most of it was redeemed, leaving very little for collectors.  We are pleased to offer some of these notes that were issued in Florida.  To view them, click here: Depression Scrip
