Oneida, Oneida Valley NB, E1090
Fr. 587 $5 1902RS #1
Grade: VF/XF    

---

The largest of three banks to issue notes in Oneida, only this one printed any Red Seals. The sheet total was $3,040 for $5s, $10s and $20s. The attrition was substantial since out of 15 large size notes in the list today, there is just this one serial #1 Red Seal. Everything is just the way it should be on this note, from the original paper to the bright colors and delicate pen signatures. Signed by H.H. Douglass, President and T.F. Hand, Jr., Cashier. Purchased from John Hickman in 1990 and not offered since. To be sure, any large note on this bank has been an elusive item. --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection --- Jess Lipka Red Seal Collection
