Merrimac, First NB, N268
Fr. 587 $5 1902RS
Grade: Ch. CU    

---

This was the town's only National Bank and it took its second title in 1877, leaving only eight large notes of all types recorded so far. The bank printed 2,355 sheets of $5-$5-$5-$5 and 1,688 sheets of $10-$10-$10-$20. This note is new to the census and the only other Red Seal is a VG. This note is Ch. CU but the note's color is somewhat subdued, probably from the sun. It has excellent pen signatures of the Sargent family and it's definitely the finest note known on the bank. --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection
