Lot of 2. Both are Memorandums of Silver Bullion deposited in 1891 at the Carson City Mint by CH Peters for the Justice Mining Co. One deposit is 3,261 ounces (.942 fineness) and the other is 2,443.7 ounces (.934 fineness). Both signed by LL Elrod for the superintendent. Folds, some toning, staple holes. The Mint was only two years away from ceasing coin production. The Justice Mine was staked in 1859 one mile northwest of Devils Gate. The Justice Shaft was sunk in the 1870s (with similar shafts in Gold Hill and Virginia City) in an attempt to reach the great depths of the Comstock Lode.
