State of Ohio (OH) 1894. $1,000. No.85. Red ruled border. Signed by William McKinley as Governor. IC. VF+. Fresh, bright, and one of the most attractive examples we have seen of this issue. The Governor´s signature is barely grazed by the ultra thin razor cancelation.William McKinley was Governor of Ohio from 1892-1896. He defeated William Jennings Bryan and became President of the United States, serving from 1897-1901, when he was assassinated. The Spanish-American War, the annexation of Hawaii, the acquisition of Puerto Rico, Philippines, Guam and American Samoa all happened during his presidency.
