This is a real rarity because Alabama Aces are few and far between. This is one of only two notes known from this location. Yes, it's low grade, but it will certainly fill a hole for an advanced Alabama collector. There are only four Aces known on the state. We sold the other three, that were part of the G. Loegler Collection, in 2003. From the Louis Van Belkum Collection.

We get few opportunities to sell Alaska notes but when we do they are always well received. The signatures are penned with the president's being a little weak, but E.H. Stroacher, the cashier, used a strong pen. This note sold in January 2008 at $19,550 but I expect that price to be a bit stronger today. It's a good opportunity to acquire a problem-free Alaska note.

Washington, First NB, 26
This example is one of only four to have survived from this bank and two are from the first sheet and serial #1, so naturally very expensive today. This piece is a nice, evenly Fine and apparently from the second set of plates made for the bank. If I owned one of the #1 notes this would have to belong with it. Louis Van Belkum told you that this would have to be his favorite note in this collection because of its history to the National Banking Act and the hobby we all share and enjoy. Those of you who collect the first 100 charters understand the importance of this offering. I sold the #1-A in 2001 and earlier the one from J.L. Irish. This will make three of the four known and perhaps one day I can handle the other #1. The First National Bank of Washington, D.C., was the 26th national bank to be chartered in the country. In contrast, the First National Bank of Philadelphia, charter #1, was the first to be chartered on June 20, 1863; and The First National Bank of Davenport, Iowa, charter #15, was the first to actually open for business on June 29. Despite these other firsts, it was the desire of the Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase that his national bank notes would debut in the city of Washington. Certainly, releasing the first national bank notes in Washington, D.C., was preferable to having them first appear in the boondocks of Davenport, Iowa! The first denomination to be released was the $5. Accordingly, the design and engraving of the plates for the Original Series $5-5-5-5 sheet combination pressed ahead with urgency once the National Bank Act was passed. When it came time to schedule the actual printing, preparation of the plate for The First National Bank of Washington moved to the head of the line and was scheduled for the earliest production. The plates were prepared by the Continental Bank Note Company, and the fronts, backs and sheet serials were printed by Continental Bank Note Company at its facilities in New York City. The sheets were signed by Henry D. Cooke, brother of Jay Cooke, who had been installed as president, and William S. Huntington, cashier. The first sheet was cut and the top note saved by Huntington, fresh as the day it was printed. Remarkably, a second note is also known from the bottom of the same sheet. This specimen, from the D position, was presented to Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase, who carried it as a pocket piece. Chase wrote on the back of his note "First national bank note issued" and signed his initials "SPC". The Chase specimen was saved in very fine to extra fine condition, and eventually was obtained in the 1960s by Washington, D.C., numismatist Phil Lampkin, now deceased. It has resurfaced and now resides as the centerpiece in a prominent Washington area collection. In contrast, the A-position note featured here has been in the possession of cashier Huntington's family since the day it was cut from the sheet 138 years ago. The First National Bank of Washington was organized on July 16, 1863. It was the first national bank organized to do business and act as a government depository in the District of Columbia. The principal shareholders were members of the firm Jay Cooke & Company, of Philadelphia, PA, who owned approximately 3,000 of the 5,000 shares. Officers of the bank included Henry D. Cooke, brother of Jay Cooke, president, and William S. Huntington, cashier. At the time Henry Cooke was a resident of Georgetown, D.C., and was the governor of the District of Columbia, during the period when the district was operating under a territorial form of government. The First National Bank resided on the second floor of the private bank of Jay Cooke & Company, on 15th Street opposite the Treasury Building. The cause of failure for The First National Bank was ascribed to failure of large debtors . No small part of the blame for the failure can be leveled at Henry Cooke s mismanagement and extravagant lifestyle which, coupled with the collapse of financial institutions intertwined with railroads, led to the lack of confidence that exacerbated a September 18, 1873, run on the bank. The receivership was closed on July 24, 1876, on the happy note that the depositors ultimately recovered 100 percent of their deposits. This story was written by Peter Huntoon and includes information from both David Sundman and Robert Bolduc.

This elegant $20 1882 Dateback is new to the count and exhibits full margins and lovely signatures. One could not ask for a fresher, more natural looking note. Tied with one of those $5 1882 Datebacks for the finest large notes on the bank, although that $5 hasn't been seen in decades. So who can say what it looks like? We do know this one is a peach.

Here is a first for me. Looking through the vast range of Grand Rapids notes I found what certainly must rate as one of the coolest notes going. Dudley Waters was president of Grand Rapids National Bank and later he was president, or signed that way, on this bank, but here he used a machine printed signature that crosses out the word 'president 'replacing it with 'Chairman of the Board'. I have never seen this before, either by pen or stamped, let alone printed. From the Louis Van Belkum Collection. Two piece lot.

If you collect the Upper Peninsula this has to be about as good as it gets. We are offering separately this extraordinary pair of Brownbacks, a $50 and a $100, and they don't match serial numbers. This is the only example to be offered for sale since 1974, when Jess Peters offered this $100 Brownback and obviously Louis Van Belkum acquired it there or shortly thereafter. While both notes grade VF, the $50 is prettier, maybe say '30' to '35'. Both have excellent pen signatures of J.H. Rice, Vice President and Langle (?), Cashier. From the Louis Van Belkum Collection.

This bank, chartered in 1864, was one of the state's earliest. It liquidated in 1897 after issuing First Charters and a few $50 and $100 Brownbacks. With only three notes reported on such an early bank one cannot be too picky. This example is apparently the finest known of the three reported although it's not XF as reported. One of the others listed is Good/VG and the other is Good. This note has three horizontal folds and a plethora of closed pinholes. It has an excellent appearance overall.

Muskegon, Lumberman's NB, 2081
This charter was established in 1873 for what I consider one of the state's most representative banks. In a state where lumber has always been an important industry it seems appropriate to have this tradesmen's title. The fact that the bank was out of business by 1893 may not bode well for the region, but a slightly different charter appeared that same year; so it may have just been the charter expiration. The fact remains that this note is one of only two notes known. It is a beautiful and rare note with excellent signatures of C. Davis, President and C.C. Billinghorst, Cashier.

The First National Bank issued only a few First Charters and closed in 1886 after four years. This bank opened in 1905 and was liquidated in 1915 after 10 years and a scant 5,033 sheets of Red Seals and Datebacks were issued. This note is well worn and the signatures are gone but will we ever see another note from here?

New to the census, raising the count to an even three dozen large size. The first $10 1902 Plainback offered since 1996.

We are excited to offer this highly collectible note from a rare New Jersey location. Though it's one of four notes recorded on this Bergen County bank, not a single note has appeared for public sale in all the sales and all the years covered by Track & Price. It is evenly circulated and despite the soiling, the blue-stamped signatures of W.B. Richardson, President and John C. Stevens, Cashier jump out at you. The bank liquidated in 1919 after a little over nine years serving this community as its only nationally chartered institution. A great New Jersey note and worth serious consideration.

Lake Arthur, Territory of New Mexico, First NB, W8584
There are only two notes known on this town so how will you ever get better than this, as only 1,588 sheets were ever printed. This is the best you can ever get from New Mexico and it's worth whatever it costs. Roman obtained this in 1974 from the grandson of Ida Hammond, Assistant Cashier. It was loaned to him for the display for the First National Bank's 100 year celebration. After being displayed in 1970, Hammond allowed him to keep the note as there were several other banks in the state that wanted the display also, as well as the New Mexico Banker's Association for their convention. It was after these events were completed that Hammond called Roman and said he wanted him to have ownership of the note for his collection. Hammond and two other ladies of the period were the only three women who Roman was able to identify as signers of New Mexico Nationals. Ida Hammond was the only one to grace a Territorial with her signature. The other two women, on Third Charter state notes, were Ruth Burns on the First of Nara Visa note and Ruth Lathrop on the First of Hagerman notes. It was many years later that Roman discovered that H.B. Sammons of Farmington was, in fact, the only lady with presidential status on New Mexico Nationals. As John Hickman would have said, "This note is a real peach". The note definitely has a fold, possibly two, but boy, it's a beauty! From the Bernalillo Collection.

It's been more than 12 years since any large Nara Visa has been offered, let alone a Red Seal. A great name, rare town, top condition and picture perfect pen signatures of Louis Baca, President and Ruth Burns, who was one of two women who signed as cashier. Notes like this are worth whatever they cost. Only 780 total sheets of Territorials were issued on this bank. According to the family, the bank closed in the 1940s, as the only people that stopped robbed the bank. Roman Latimer met Mr. de Baca, who was a former Lt. Governor, in Denver years ago and he learned invaluable information about eastern New Mexico banking in the early days. Jack Everson purchased this note from Morris Lowenstern, beating Roman Latimer to it. Later, Roman found that Lowenstern still had a small size note on the bank and he got that, so they were both happy. From the Bernalillo Collection.

This Territorial Deuce is one of only 30 known from all the Territories which included this type (Nebraska, Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Colorado, Utah and New Mexico) combined. At least one example is known from each Territory. While this note is problem-free and just has honest, even circulation I can't understand a grade of Fine. I think it's VG pleasing and desirable but would not want unrealistic expectations as to the way it looks. Since this note was last offered we sold the #1 from this bank at $345,000. Lazy Deuce Territorials are all great rarities. From the Bernalillo Collection.

Santa Fe, Territory of New Mexico, First NB, W1750
The Territory of New Mexico was formed in 1850 and did not become the 47th state until 1912. Fifty-five National Banks issued notes while New Mexico was a Territory. Twenty-eight of the banks have notes reported, with a total of 117 notes in 1992. The First National Bank of Santa Fe is not only from the first bank chartered in the Territory, but also from the state capital. There have been 23 Territorial notes reported on this bank, many of which are First Charters. It is relatively apparent that this note was folded in half and carried for a while. The left half is just ever so slightly darker than the right. No doubt put away for a rainy day, or possibly the need for a rainy day in that part of the country. A pleasing overall appearance with strong, clear pen signatures. There are currently three $5 Territorial Blue Seals known on this bank, as well as two $10s and one $20.

I think this is as desirable a note as you could get for a New York collection. The stats are fantastic and the quality amazing. The bottom selvage is an added attraction. This note has it all.

New York, Dunbar NB, 13237
The census shows 58 large notes recorded and it also shows 20 uncut sheets. The exact numbers are quite important because this bank carries the scarce Woods-Tate signature combination. The engraved bank signatures are of J.D. Higgins, President and Geole Loomis, Cashier. This is also the serial #2 note and it has the bottom selvage still attached. I believe that brings all $20s known to 11, including ones on the sheets.

Cleveland, NB, 1666
I have saved what will certainly be thought of as 'most exciting' in the sale as my last note in this sale to write up. This Bradley County bank has 18 large notes reported, including a $10 First Charter, this $100 Brownback and 16 Blue Seals. One could argue that this is as special a Tennessee note as there is because it's beautiful and problem-free, with pen signatures of A.E. Johnston, President and P. Lang, Cashier. So let's see if there's a case to make. There were 3,211 sheets of $50-100 Brownbacks printed, it's really pretty and I can only find two others on the state, both of which are Memphis. OK, I like the Cleveland best. Now it's your turn to think about it.

A well used, but evenly circulated Red Seal from one of Texas' interesting family named banks. This note is signed by John Woods, President and W.F. Woods, Cashier, keeping it in the family. For some reason this town has had a number of successful family titled banks over the years. Those banks include: Lockwood National Bank, Woods National Bank, Groos National Bank and Frost National Bank, which is still around after nearly 140 years in business. The Woods Bank was chartered in 1904 and lasted only until 1907, issuing just 5,942 sheets of Red Seals. It is hard to find a tougher bank and a Red Seal to boot. Included is a note from Philpott with a $20 price tag!

Park Falls, First NB, M10489
The first record of this note in Track & Price was in 2005, when it sold for $3,537. Up to that point, no large size had ever been publicly offered anywhere near as nice. The total number of large size sheets issued by this bank was just under 5,000, and with a large size outstanding of $1,20, all things point to a very limited number of new additions on this charter. Just 11 large size are in the census and maybe two of them are higher grade. Only a faint trace of the signatures remains.

Prescott, First NB, 10522
This one-bank town issued a miniscule number of large sheets and even fewer sheets of small notes. So few in fact, that only three large and nine small notes remain today. This is a very presentable example, with only a few microscopic pinholes mentioned for the sake of accuracy. Before this note surfaced last year, no note of any kind had been seen publicly in over 10 years! Think of this note like a comet. Here for a short while, then not returning for another 10 years.

Waupaca, First NB, 14063
Don't confuse this 14000 charter Waupaca bank with the more common lower charter. There is enough demand such that the 14 known specimens will all find happy homes. Wonderful grade, but a margin tear that just reaches the design and a poorly cut top margin must be considered. No example offered from 2000 through 2006 brought less than about $700.
