1863 Signed Singer Document
So I just won an auction and received my document.
The seller listed it as a document TO I.M. Singer Co in 1863, but in fact is is also singed "Accepted" and "I. M. Singer & Co" vertically over the document.

Written vertically over the document is:
Accepted
I.M. Singer & Co
It feels like the 173/162 was written at the time of "acceptance" but I have no evidence yet.
