25 cent "White Note" [Valley Note]

[Salt Lake City, UT]. Ephemera. [5 cm by 9.5 cm] Unsigned white note dated March 28, 1849. Very clean with no marks or tears. When the Mormon pioneers arrived in the Salt Lake Valley there became an almost immediate need for a form of currency, and in January of 1849 paper notes were issued. The paper used for this note (and all other White Notes) came from Brigham Young's personal journals (faint blue lines are still visible). Seemingly all of the 25 cent notes dated March 28, 1849 were uncirculated and unissued. Nyholm p.148. Item #26764
