USA: Real Estate Bank of the State of Arkansas, $100 shares, 18[39], #43, scrollwork border, black. Appears to be an official copy as signatures of the President and Cashier are in the same hand. Formed in 1836 as a State sponsored bank in which the capital was to be provided by the State by the issue of coupon bonds. Riddled with mismanagement and corruption until the State took control in 1855. A little toned and brittle with some chipping otherwise EF.
