Used in Quebec prior to 1813 to purchase supplies and pay troops. This specimen dated September 1, 1806 is interesting because it is for 2500 pounds, a huge sum at that time. It is signed by John Craigle, Commissary General from 1784 to 1808. He was dismissed during his service for misappropriating funds. A rare military Canadian document and historically important. PCGS graded Extra Fine-40 PPQ.
