King George III
Very rare bank check, 7 x 2.75, filled out in and signed by King George III, "George R.," payable to Robert Brown for £1281.15, June 20, 1810. In fine condition, with some light staining. By this time the king had begun to go blind and suffer from mental illness, thus his rather erratic signature. The first time we have offered a check from King George III.
